★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Sealdah - India's one of the most crowded railway station. It is divided into two parts viz Sealdah Main and Sealdah South. Long route trains generally come at Platform no 8 to 12 at Sealdah Main. Rest all the platforms are for local trains..Sealdah has multiple food joints, ATM, and all kind of vendors selling almost all the items. IRCTC food point is also their but its expensive. Do visit it once in your life time to see how the masses running and catching trains. Simple unbelievable.
