Ernakulam Junction or Ernakulam South Railway Station?

Both are the names of the main train station. Southern Railway spells out Ernakulam South Station as the other name for Ernakulam Junction.

Passengers are generally familiar with Ernakulam Junction railway station rather than Ernakulam South railway station.

What Is the Next Stop After Your Train Arrives?

An Ernakulam Junction passenger might be coming to a single stop or several stops before the day is over.

Common situations include:

• - Going from the station to a nearby hotel.
• - Attending a business meeting.
• - Going to an office surrounding MG Road and Kadavanthra.
• - Checking in to a place of accommodation and out again to an appointment.
• - Finishing up shopping or personal activities in a brief visit.
• - On towards Marine Drive, Vyttila or other area of Kochi.

If you need to travel more than just one station, you may want to consider using a scooter or commuter bike.

Royal Brothers does not have a rental counter at Ernakulam Junction Railway Station. Please note that unless you have confirmed a booking exactly for that collection address, do not expect a vehicle to be waiting at the station door.

Are You Travelling with Luggage?

A small bag or backpack might be able to fit on a suitable two-wheeler. A large suitcase or multiple bags/bulky equipment can make a bike unsafe and/or impractical.

Before booking, consider:

• - The amount of carry-on you're carrying.
• - Whether it can be safely secured.
• - Whether it impacts steering or balance.
• - If the pillion passenger is travelling with you.
• - How far the confirmed collection point is from the station.
• - If you must drop off your luggage at a hotel first.

Take an alternative means of conveyance for the first time when it is not safe to carry the luggage. The rental bike can be picked up after the bags are checked in or stored.

Connecting Through Ernakulam South Metro Station

Kochi Metro is operational, and Ernakulam South Metro Station is a part of it. Officially, it is located between Maharaja's College and Kadavanthra.

A passenger can ride the Metro on one leg of the trip and hire a bike for the other leg of the trip.

Possible combinations include:

• - Train arrival and then use the Metro.
• - Travel from the Metro to the hotel or office.
• - A meeting near Kadavanthra after arriving by train.
• - Head towards MG Road before picking up a rental.
• - At the end of a short stay, moving back into the railway-station area.

Consider the railway ticket, the Metro trip and the reservation of the Royal Brothers as three distinct transactions. Check each timing independently.

There is no rental stand at Ernakulam South Metro Station.

Scooter or Bike: What Works Better After a Train Journey?

• - The rent is required for a few days.
• - You are travelling regularly between two localities.
• - Ernakulam South is only the arrival point.
• - The route is more extensive and takes the entire day in Kochi.
