I am going to Ahmedabad in the month of October, so I visited the Indian Railway's website to book tickets online. I explored the site for a long time as I was looking for a late train leaving on Friday from Mumbai, so had to check for various trains. While booking the tickets I came across few funny station codes of the stations on the Mumbai-Ahmedabad Route and few other routes.
All Indian railway stations have their own short code. These codes are generally two, three or fours letters short codes. Eg:- CST (Chhatrapti Shivaji Terminus) station has a code called CSTM, Mumbai Central Station has a code called BCTM. These codes are only applciable for outstation trains. You will come across these codes when you book an outstation ticket/s. These codes are provided by Indian Railways to all the stations through out the country.
I am sharing few funny station codes which you will love reading them. I have also added some other codes for the station which we use in our life from time to time.
