Begusarai
is
an
industrial
and
commercial
hub,
a
district
headquarter
town
and
a
municipal
corporation.
The
township
of
IOCL
Barauni
Refinery
is
situated
in

municipal
corporation
area.
Begusarai
railway
station
is
the
main
station
of
Begusarai
district.
Despite
all
these
facts,
more
than
one
dozen
pairs
of
long
distance
mail
express
trains
do
not
stop
at
BGS.
Due
to
unavailability
of
better
train
facilities,
passengers
are
often
compelled
to
board
trains
from
Mokama
(MKA),
Hathidah,
Barauni
junction
(BJU),Jamalpur
Khagaria
and
Patna.
The
major
facilities
available
are
waiting
rooms,
computerized
reservation
facility
and
vehicle
parking.
The
vehicles
are
allowed
to
enter
the
station
premises.
The
station
also
has
STD/ISD/PCO
telephone
booth,
toilets,
tea
stalls,
fruit
stall,
dairy
stall,
meal
stall
and
book
stall.
The
station
has
total
three
platforms
and
are
interconnected
with
two
foot
over
bridges.
Several
electrified
local
passenger
trains
and
express
trains
run
from
Barauni
Junction
to
neighbouring
destinations
such
as
Katihar,
Munger,
Saharsa,
Purnia,
New
Jalpaiguri
among
others.[2][3][4]
The
Indian
Railways
has
set
up
a
Railway
Station
Development
Corporation
(RSDC)
that
is
working
to
improve
the
major
railway
stations.
In
1st
phase
RSDC
has
selected
Begusarai
and
04
other
most
important
railway
stations
of
ECR
zone,
including
Muzaffarpur,
Patna,
Gaya.
They
will
build
and
develop
Restaurants,
shopping
areas
and
food
plaza/courts
etc.
for
commercial
business
and
improving
passenger
amenities
on
these
"World
Class"
Railway
Stations.
For
this
RSDC
has
already
started
the
process
and
in
coming
days
people
will
get
World
class
facilities
here.
