Operational history & Location (Steem Atlas pin)

Kamalapur Railway Station is a central railway station located in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh. It is the largest station in the country. This railway station was opened on 1 May 1968. Kamalapur Railway Station was built during the Pakistan period. Built in 1968, this railway station was the main witness to the genocide that took place during the Liberation War in 1971. After our Bangladesh became independent, the country's first inland container depot was established here. Although proposals were made to demolish the building of this station at various times, it was not implemented. Various problems are currently being observed at Kamalapur Station. One of them is insecurity, criminal activities and floating population. This station has 13 platforms. In addition, there are various facilities including a mosque, railway hospital, police station.

What do you like most about the Railway Station or Bus Station while traveling?

I like railway stations more when traveling. I like traveling by train more. I feel more comfortable traveling by train. People in our area love to travel by train more. I like traveling by train more for long journeys. Traveling by train in Bangladesh is less risky. There are more accidents on the road in Bangladesh. In the history of Bangladesh, there have been a few accidents on train journeys. That is why I like traveling by train more for risky travel.

Environmental impact & (With pictures + videos)

Railway stations have a positive impact on the environment. Rail transport is more environmentally friendly than other forms of transport. Station-centered activities have several impacts on the environment. Trains emit 70% less greenhouse gas than buses and trucks. Railway stations reduce the pressure on road transport by increasing travel facilities. This saves us a lot of fuel.
