Trivandrum–Nagercoil–Kanniyakumari and Tirunelveli–Nagercoil construction projects were inaugurated by the then Prime minister Mrs.Indira Gandhi on 6 September 1972. The Trivandrum–Nagercoil–Kanniyakumari line was opened on 15 April 1979. Nagercoil Junction became operational on 15 April 1979. The rail-link to Kanniyakumari was established only in 1979, mainly because establishing a rail line through the district posed some challenges for the rail department and took a lot of efforts, especially the western line. The western line runs through some huge artificial ground-elevations and a number of hill-tunnels. Kanyakumari district is connected through direct train services with all leading metropolitan cities in India like New Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata. The Chennai–Nagercoil sector is the largest profit making line in south India, which brought in  in 2011. Most of the train services from this station were the trains, that were extended services from nearest major cities such as Tirunelveli Junction and Thiruvananthapuram Central. Layout
