The station links the pilgrim town as well as the rest of the island to the mainland via the highly acclaimed Pamban Rail Bridge. Location and layout 
The station is one of the oldest in the country, and accommodate trains such as the Sethu Express and the Boatmail Express, which were two of the most significant and historic trains operated in the region prior to the gauge conversion.
