[[Chennai]], the capital city of the state of [[Tamil Nadu]], India, and the headquarters of the [[Southern Railway zone]], is a major rail transport hub in the country. It has over 40 railway stations which are part of an extensive suburban railway network<ref>http://www.sr.indianrailways.gov.in/</ref> The city is served by three railway terminals – the [[Chennai Central railway station]] and the [[Chennai Egmore railway station]] and the [[Tambaram railway station]].

The first railway station to be built in Chennai is the [[Royapuram railway station|Royapuram station]] constructed in 1855 though the city had a railway line that dates back to the 1840s.

Fundamentally, Chennai has 4 suburban railway lines,<ref name="CMRL pdf">{{cite web|title=Project Brief of Chennai Metro Rail |url=http://chennaimetrorail.gov.in/pdf/project_brief_updated_aug08.pdf |work=CMRL |publisher=Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) |access-date=24 May 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://www.webcitation.org/6H4ij99qY?url=http://chennaimetrorail.gov.in/pdf/project_brief_updated_aug08.pdf |archive-date= 2 June 2013 }}</ref> namely [[North Line, Chennai Suburban|North line]], [[West Line, Chennai Suburban|West line]], [[South Line, Chennai Suburban|South line]] and [[Chennai MRTS|MRTS line]]. The [[South West Line, Chennai Suburban|South West line]], [[West North Line, Chennai Suburban|West North line]] and [[West South Line, Chennai Suburban|West South line]] are merely minor extensions or modifications of the aforementioned suburban lines. The MRTS is a suburban railway line that chiefly runs on an elevated track exclusively used for running local EMUs or suburban local trains. No express trains or passenger trains run on MRTS line.
