Thanisandra railway station (station code: THSA) is a railway station in Bangalore, India, which used to serve Thanisandra locality. Despite being an existing railway station, it has historically witnessed limited passenger train services and low operational activity.[1]

History

Thanisandra railway station was established as a halt station to serve suburban areas in northern Bengaluru. Over time, train stoppages at the station were reduced, leading to demands from residents and commuter groups for restoration and modernization of services.[1] The station gained renewed attention with the development of the Bengaluru Suburban Railway project, particularly Corridor-4 (Kanaka line), which is expected to improve rail connectivity in north Bengaluru.[2]

Connectivity

The station is located near Thanisandra Main Road and serves nearby residential layouts, apartment complexes and employment hubs in north Bengaluru, including areas around Manyata Tech Park.
