Template:Infobox Indian railway stationThiruvananthapuram Nemom Railway Station (Code:NEM) Malayalam:തിരുവനന്തപുരം നേമം is a railway station in the metropolitan region of Trivandrum in the state of Kerala, India.[1]
Nemom is in the Trivandrum division of the Southern Railway zone of the Indian Railways. It was established on 1979 and acts as a satellite station for Trivandrum central for trains connecting Trivandrum from south.[2]
Train operating centre
Indian Railways have finalized a proposal for setting up an operating centre in Nemom, for trains starting from and terminating in Thiruvananthapuram Central. All the coach maintenance activities performed at the Thiruvananthapuram Central will be transferred to Nemom once the operating centre is commissioned.[3] They are setting up 10 pit lines for the maintenance of 30 trains, 12 stabling lines, sick lines and staff quarters at Nemom.[4][5]
Proposed New Passenger Terminal
The Ministry of Railways, in its budget for the fiscal year 2011-2012 announced to develop Nemom as the second satellite passenger Terminus to Thiruvananthapuram Central. Trivandrum will thus become the first city in Kerala to have two satellite stations. Nemom will soon be developed as a full-fledged railway station with 5 platforms and will act as a terminus station for trains coming to Trivandrum from the Northern side, thereby reducing the rush/congestion in the Central railway station.
It is also proposed to lay one more track between Nemom and Kochuveli to ease the traffic in this corridor[6].
