    Lot of mixed crowd. Always carry exact money for platform or travel ticket. Take the pre-paid auto only. And also be cautious near the underpass near the main gate.

    Choose the subway/stairs on the other side of the platform opp. side from the foot overbridge. It has a lift/elevator for luggage and less crowded.

    There is an old coolie with a wodden plank who hits innocent dogs near the parking lot. If you find him, belt him with that same log until he cries as loud as those innocent dogs.

    There are 3 unreserved compartments at the end and one in the front... Come 20 to 25 mins early to catch a seat.. Anytime sooner would not help as the train arrives 20 mins before departure...

    Chennai mail at platform 1 main entrance. If ur trains are late and want a place to stand the platform ends are best. But keep a look at the screens for ur trains.
