Coimbatore Junction (CBE)

I am resident of Coimbatore and visiting the station for so many years. Though there are improvement happening, there is no proper arrangements for elderly and disabled persons to come to the platforms to board the train. For so many years the Railway did not take any perceptible steps to make a permanent escalator to approach platform. The crowding at the entrance of the Railway station is certainly to be avoided so that movement of the incoming and outgoing passengers could happen without much problem. No toilet facilities in none of the platforms and also no drinking water facilities. This station earns more than Rs.150 Crore revenue per annum but the state of affairs is very bad. Coimbatore is an important city in Tamil Nadu next to Chennai Metro.

i vouch all above comments and no proper parking facility in frontage. The little space available is fully occupied by the taxi vala's

Escalators don't work. They have been there for more than 5 years. NOT WORKING!

There is a large subway created. But NOBODY (less than 5%) uses them! A facility that is not useful for which crores of rupees was spent. Whose money is this anyway?

Only paid toilets are available. Even that is not maintained properly. If you are not in a hurry, you will not walk into it.

Coach position not displayed for Kouchuveli AC express, Kannur express and so on. The AC coaches or AC Ist class coaches are located at the end or beginning from engine and they are changed many times. In the absence of that senior citizens suffer running from one end to the other. Station is clean. That way in recent months, most of the stations are clean.

There are escalators connecting all platforms, but they are for coming down when we reach Coimbatore. The escalators are needed for going up to catch trains. The existing platform (going down) are often switched off, may be due to power problem.

Escalators can be provided
