Alight at Tirusulam for the airport

Chennai: Train passengers bound for Chennai airport from the south of Tamil Nadu may soon be able to alight at the railway station diagonally opposite the aerodrome.
Minister of State for Railways K H Muniyappa has ordered authorities to augment for a stop at Tirusulam Railway Station for express and mail trains, allowing passengers to proceed directly to the city airport. He was addressing the gathering on the occasion of Anti-Terrorism Day at the Rajiv Gandhi Memorial in Sriperumpudur in neighbouring Kanchipuram district on Monday.
The Minister’s stress on a stop at Tirusulam is expected to end the hardship of passengers and visitors from southern districts who are forced to break their journey at the crowded Tambaram station to head for the airport.
Outbound travellers to different countries from central and southern parts of the State prefer to commute by train to Chennai, thanks to the convenience and the reasonable fare.
