    NJP station platform no 1 and 1A are adjacent. Most trains from Kolkata howrah and sealdah stops here. Most of the facilities are in platform 1. Like 1) Normal non AC waiting room where seating is free but toilet is chargeable(Rs. 10) 2) AC waiting room where seating charge is Rs. 10/hour and toilet charge is 5. 3) Executive lounge where first hour seating charge is rs. 50 but after that 20/hour. 4) Non AC and AC retiring room. 5) Lift for reaching to other platforms etc. Problems 1) Toilet charges are pretty high and illegal as per Indian Railway rules. They are setting price as per their own arrangements 2) No lift facilities to reach retiring rooms. You have to carry your luggage on stairs. 3) No lift/slide facilities in any other platform like PF5
