With 55 stations each in Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan, 49 in Bihar, 44 in Maharashtra, 37 in West Bengal, and numerous others in Madhya Pradesh, Assam, Odisha, Punjab, Gujarat, Telangana, Jharkhand, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Haryana, and Karnataka, the chosen 508 stations are spread across 27 states and union territories.

With amenities and top-notch infrastructure, modern design
By providing cutting-edge amenities and thoughtful traffic management, the reconstruction project will completely transform the passenger experience. The fusion of diverse modes of transit will improve connectedness even more.

Passengers will also profit from clear and useful signage for direction.

Also, the architecture and style of the station buildings will be influenced by regional culture, heritage, and architecture, giving each station a sense of individuality and pride.
