History

The first train running from Changanassery railway station was established in 1958. Though Railway traffic was set up at Ernakulam and Trivandrum in the form of Kerala, these connections were not directly connected. In 1956, the metre-gauge was constructed from Ernakulam to Kottayam. Then in 1958 it was extended from Kottayam to Changanassery and linked with Kollam and Thiruvananthapuram Central. The metre-gauge line from Changanassery was moved by broad gauge and the railway transportation was started in 1976 by Chief minister of Kerala C. Achutha Menon.[5]
