NICE ROUTE MAP OF LOCAL TRAINS IN WB


Since I always lived in Kolkata, it is difficult for me to remember the local train routes. I have compiled it for ease of remembrance.






Bird's eye view of 6 main routes/lines :

   1 Hwh to Asanasol                                 
 2. HwH to  Katwa (and then to Malda)
3. Sealdah to Krishna Nagar               
  4. Sealdah to Gede                               
   5. Sealdah to Namkhana                             
                           
In these 5 main routes, there are some inter-changes at following stations, from where you can get down to take some sub-routes :                                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                            
Shaktigarh, Barasat, Naihati, Barasat, Sonarpur, Baruipur                                                             

## Apart from these, there is 1 more important route (6th route) (SE Railway) which goes to Panskura, from where one branch goes to Haldia (in this route towards Haldia, however, one route branches off towards Digha, from Tamluk) AND another branch goes to Kharagpur ( and some of them goes further towards Bishnupur-Bankura-Purulia)
