Kalyanpur railway station is a small railway station in Kanpur district, Uttar Pradesh. Its code is KAP. It serves Kalianpur city. The station consists of three platforms.[1]
Formerly the metre-gauge line ran through Kalianpur and was connected to Brahmavarta station in Bithoor. But due to conversion of the metre-gauge railway line to broad-gauge line the railway route to Bithoor was subsequently closed and the Brahvarta station now remains deserted. The Indian Railways have decided to extend line from Mandhana Central-Safipur Junction via Brahmavart. There were vital demands from the public to restart the railway route connecting Kanpur Central railway station to Brahmavarta, Bithoor though the matter remains reserved.[citation needed]
