I
visited Chennasandra in February 2001. This station is listed in Southern
Railway Time Table, 433/434 Banglore - Guntur Passenger stops here, it has a
control tower, it is a junction where five tracks converge at two levels, it has
a level crossing gate. Everything looks normal, neat in place, except
.....
.......... this station does not have a platform or a sign board to announce its'
presence.

Facing Bangalore City, one can see tracks on left heading to higher level to
meet track on upper level that cross lower level tracks at 90 degrees.
24 coaches, double headed Karnataka Express at
Chennasandra.
Chennasandra has electrified as well as non-electrified tracks!
The
credit for taking me to Chennasandra goes to Shri S. Srinivas, IRFCA member from
Bangalore.
Addendum: Another Railfan from Chennasandra,
Karthik M.V., has pointed out that a reference be made that these pictures were
taken from Chennasandra control tower and not from the main station.
