Hyderabad Deccan railway station, Railway station in Nampally mandal, Hyderabad, India.
Hyderabad Deccan is a railway station with six platforms in Nampally mandal, Hyderabad, serving both local and long-distance trains through the South Central Railway network. The facility has covered waiting areas, multiple ticket counters, and direct connections to buses and taxis for onward travel within the city.
The opening took place in 1874 under British colonial administration and created a major transport artery for the Hyderabad region. Over the following decades the operation expanded and the platforms were modernized to meet growing passenger numbers.
The name refers to the historic Deccan plateau, while the platforms today bring together travelers from all over India who wait for their trains and buy regional snacks. During early mornings and late evenings you see families with large luggage visiting their home villages or moving to other cities.
It is best to visit the station outside peak commute hours in the morning and evening when platforms are less crowded. Ticket counters are located in the main building, and restrooms as well as food stalls are accessible across all platforms.
On the central platform stands an old cast iron clock from the colonial era that is still wound by hand. The waiting halls in the main building display original wooden benches and fans from the first half of the 20th century.
