sorry, disagree! Train kehne ko ALD touch karti hain COI ke naam par but practically its very difficult to actually use it as a station for ALD residents due to pathetic condition, absence of feasible public transport links. Naini residents dont like going to COI, baaki Allahabad waalon ke baare mein to poochho hi mat.
.
Important trains are made to bypass ALD in COI's name and then COI is left to rot. It needs to be overhauled completely by combining forces from railway, PWD, NHAI and local municipal bodies to make it

worthy of being a station for Allahabad passengers.

Predominant mode of transport at the station premises is Rickshaws (manual).
A brisk 10-15 minute walk will bring you to the MONIRBA round-about from where Vikram tempos to Kutchery (in one direction) and Govindpur/Teliarganj (opposite direction) are available. NIT Allahabad (erstwhile MLNREC) is on the Govindpur route. For Katra, Allenganj, various faculties of Allahabad University rickshaws are the best bet.
