Thiruvananthapuram Pettah railway station (station code: TVP) is an NSG–6 category Indian railway station in Thiruvananthapuram railway division of Southern Railway zone.[1] It is a railway station for inter-city trains, located at Thiruvananthapuram, in the Indian state of Kerala.[2] The station is only 2.5 kilometres (1.6 mi) from the Thiruvananthapuram Central station. Most incoming trains from Kollam direction (from north) halt here for the convenience of passengers in the general area and to reduce the crowd at Thiruvananthapuram Central.[citation needed] But very few outgoing trains to north have a halt at Pettah.
