Mirzapur Railway Station, Mirzapur

Today I came to participate in the wonderful Atlas Contest organized by @miftahulrizky. The topic is Contest! Map the Story on Steem Atlas #17.

Today I will show you our Mirzapur Railway Station. Mirzapur Railway Station is one of the busiest stations located in Mirzapur Upazila of Tangail District of Dhaka Division. This railway station is located next to Mirzapur Bus Stand where many trains pass every day. It is located on the opposite side of Dhaka Tangail Highway, so people can change vehicles by swiping. The name of Mirzapur Railway Station is written right in front of the station.

Railway is the most convenient and affordable form of public transport in Bangladesh. To go to Mirzapur Railway Station, you first have to come to Mirzapur Stand. Then there is Mirzapur Railway Line next to it and Mirzapur Railway Station is located five minutes walk from it. The name Mirzapur is written at the very end of the station. There are two lines here for two trains to pass at the same time. There are some places for the public to sit until the end of the platform. However, the platform of the station is always clean.

When you come to this railway station, there are many places to sit there. Then when you need to go to any destination, you must buy your train ticket. You can go to different destinations from Mirzapur Railway Station, so you must buy your ticket from the ticket counter.

You can never board the train without a train ticket. We can also buy train tickets online if we wish. But there is a beautiful counter at that station. Where tickets are booked and the up and down train schedule can be seen.

The ticket counter window is opened at regular intervals. Every railway station in Bangladesh has a station master who manages that station. He manages that sector group when a train has arrived and when a train is leaving. The station master has a separate room which is locked most of the time. However, there is another room next to it which is known as the duty station master's room. This station has separate seating arrangements for each passenger and people. Although fans have not been set up for the heat at present, they will be set up later.

Let's see when a train passes through the station. Mirzapur Railway Station is a station that is located in the middle. That is why all trains going to North Bengal stop here and all trains going to Dhaka also stop here.

We can go to any station we want from this Mirzapur Railway Station. At 6:30 in the morning, a North Bengal-bound train passes, at 8 in the morning, a Dhaka-bound train called Sirajganj Express passes, at 12 noon, the Dhaka-bound Silk City Express passes, and then again every three hours, these trains pass from Dhaka to North Bengal. I took a few pictures.

To go from Mirzapur to the station face to face, you must buy a ticket. If you buy a ticket from a local train, the ticket price will be lower, then if you buy a better ticket called Shobhon Chair, the ticket price will be a little higher, then if you want to buy an AC coach share ticket, it will be the most expensive. But everyone buys tickets according to their needs.

The fare of the local train from Mirzapur to Dhaka Kamalapur Railway Station is 35 Taka or 2 Steem. The fare of the intercity train from Mirzapur to Kamalapur Railway Station is 70 Taka or 4.5 STEEM. There is a grocery store next to the station for food, water, and drinks. A dustbin has been kept in which garbage is thrown to keep it clean.

The security system there is very good, sometimes the station master arranges for the police when there is a jam. Besides, there are always train police in the train. There is a station master to look after the station and there is a control room inside where you can sit and watch the train signals all the time.

There is an automatic machine on the railway line outside the station through which the train signals when a train passes. It is kept very clean so that the station looks beautiful. Besides, the presence of various plants next to this station creates a cool environment.

I think our Mirzapur Railway Station is very suitable for our transport vehicles because it has all kinds of facilities. Although Bangladesh is updating and our Mirzapur Railway Station needs to be updated more, such as digital LED display and internet system should be there for everyone. It will be updated gradually and hopefully it will be recognized as a complete railway station, so I have reviewed it for you.

I have set a 25% beneficiary to @steem-atlas for supporting this project.

So I am Inviting my Steemian friends @fasoniya, @damithudaya, @solaymann, @sushanta83, @selina1, @narocky71,@abdul-rakib to Participate in this Contest.
