Alamnagar railway station is a railway station in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. Its code is AMG. It serves Rajajipuram, Alamnagar and Buddheshwar areas of Lucknow. The station consists of five platforms. The platforms are well sheltered. It has facilities including water and sanitation. Currently the station is satellite station.[1][2][3][4]

Alamnagar is also a junction station. Lines coming from Moradabad bifurcate here. A set of double electrified lines go towards Lucknow Charbagh NR (LKO) and Lucknow Junction NER (LJN) Stations. Another set of double electrified lines go towards Utraitia Junction (UTR) via Transport Nagar Railway Station (TPNR). This allows trains to skip the highly congested Charbagh Railway Station. These tracks were also strengthened to run trains at speeds upto 100kmph.[5]
