surjitbasu~ 1383 blog postsCKP Now had an extra Platform (Terminal Platform) at ROU end on other side of PF#1. It was being developed from during the lockdown period and noe from Feb 2nd' 2021, Saranda MEMU began to commence its journey from this Platform.
So now CKP has 4 platforms instead of 3 ?? Is it a half length platform?? I went to CKP in 2019, good place.
Yes half length, with terminal. For trains towards ROU only. Earlier 3 were through platforms. So only Saranda MEMU can use it as of now.
Tata had similar one at HWH end and train towards BMPR/GUMI branch presently uses it. In this sire TATA is mentioned as 6 PFs, remaining 5 being through platforms, in that case now CKP can be mentioned as 4PFs. :)

Actually few terminal PFs were already there long back, some of them were used for Goods Godown and loading, may be from the British time, however now first passenger is leaving from one of them which has been electrified recently and height have been raised and surface have been fitted with stones/tiles.
