How to Travel to ITPL or K R Puram by Train (Bangalore)

Posted on March 18, 2009 by Praveenkumar Hallur

Most of the pople who daily travel to ITPL or K R Puram might have got irritated by travel through the bus from Rajajinagar, Kamalanagar, Mahalaxmi Layout, Nadini Layout or any near by north end place, if so now the better solution for them is to catch a train which will go towards Channai, Marikuppam, Bangarpet, Arakonnam, Chickballapur, Salem etc. All these train will reach to K R Puram or Whitefield whithin an 30Min. Nobody takes with this much early that too in peak time like 8 to 10 in the morning and 5 yo 8 in the evening.

Hence i recommend you to travel by train in this route, which is very convinent.

Train has to be catched from majectic (City Railway Station).

Train run frequently in the morning the train timings are Morning 7, 7:15, 8:15, 8:40, 9:00, 9:20, 9:40. I will upadate the Full time time table here some time afterwards till then if you have any query regarding this travel please comment me.

If you have any queries regaring railway please feel free to contact me with comments.

      Hi pawan,
      If you want to go to KR Puram better way is to get down at channasandra or Baiyappanhalli which are not official stop (in either of the one it will stop) but for crossing or else get down at “cantonment” Railway station from there you can catch one more train which goes to KR Puram instead of going to majestic.

    Hi,

    This is a useful info. Can you give some more info on these trains that ply between bangalore city station and KR puram? I am looking at info like:
    1) Is there a way to book in advance?
    2) Where to buy tickets for these trains, name of the train?
    3) Is there more info available on indian rail website?
    4) What is fare?

    Thanks,
    Venkat.

      Hi Venkat,
      Thanks for showing interest, if you are daily traveller then you can buy season ticket (i.e Monthly pass). This season ticket will differ for different trains like Passanger, Mail/Express and Super Fast. All will be having different fare and also this fare differs with the distance this information you can get from any time table book or Train at a glance book which are sold in the railways station counters.
      If you are trvelling any one time then you take ticket like normal second class ticket.
      1) No need to book the ticket in advance because it is hardly 14Kms form Majestic.
      2) you can buy the ticket like normal IInd class ticket.
      3) If you want to know details of fare trains etc you can log on to eril.in
      4) irctc.co.in will provide the trains details but it does not provide you the passnger trains info, but erail.in will provide all including frare, stoppages etc.
      I think i cleared your doubts, still exits then ping me up.

      Hi,
      Trains from KR Puram to Bangalore are at 14.00, 16.10, 18.00 these are Passanger trains.
      After this there are 3 sperfast trains at 19.00, 19.30, 21.00.
      There may slight variation with the time.
      From Baiyappannahalli you get 2 more extra trains at 17.40, 17.55 these are passangers.

      Whitefield is the station (for kadugodi too). From there, buses are right outside the station to take us to ITPL (rs 3/- , or Rs. 10 in vajra)

      For train timings, you can also refer to the link: http://www.trainenquiry.com/DepartureByStationName.aspx

      I could not see a direct way to find out from-to time table. but from the arrivals/departure links, we can get the train number and their schedules
