Kalyanpur railway station is a small railway station in Kanpur district, Uttar Pradesh. Its code is KAP. It serves Kalyanpur city. The station consists of 3 platforms. The platform is not well sheltered. It lacks many facilities including water and sanitation.[1]

Formerly the Metre gauge line ran through Kalyanpur and was connected to Brahmavarta Station in Bithoor. But due to conversion of the metre gauge railway line to broad gauge line the railway route to Bithoor was subsequently closed and the Brahvarta station now remains deserted. The Indian Rail has decided to extend line from Mandhana Central-Safipur Junction via Brahmavart. There were vital demands from the public to restart the railway route connecting Kanpur Central railway station to Brahmavarta, Bithoor though the matter remains reserved.
