Railway Junction :
Kazipet is famous for being a major railway junction and locomotive (largely diesel) maintenance division in Andhra Pradesh (after Vijayawada). This can be seen in the fact that many of the residents are employees of Indian Railways. It is the hub connecting North and South, East and West India with more than 60 daily trains passing through. The railway junction is located next to a large granite hill (known as bodigutta), which is used to house radio communications, presumably for the railways. The railway station has three platforms. Platform 1 was used as a VIP siding, where VIP coaches were brought in and the guests could move from the station bypassing the main gates, but this is no longer practiced.
