Which trains stop here
The station handles express and passenger services linking Belagavi with Mumbai, Pune, Miraj, Kolhapur-side connections, Bengaluru, Hubballi and Vasco/Goa via Londa. Long distance trains towards Delhi and the south also pass through, so many journeys are possible with a single change at Miraj, Londa or Hubballi.
Facilities
- Waiting halls, retiring rooms, reservation counters and enquiry desk.
- Refreshment stalls and water booths on the main platform.
- Prepaid and street autos outside; app cabs work but can take a few minutes.
- Ramps and wheelchair assistance are available on request from station staff.
Arriving late at night
Autos are present for most night arrivals but fares are negotiated rather than metered. If you land after midnight, a lodge near the station or the Central Bus Terminal is the easier option than crossing the city.
