Wellawatte Railway Station

Certain express trains don't stops here. So better recheck with station staffs. You can make train seat reservations from here.

This railway station is an iconic place in Colombo district because it's the last stop and the first stop going south and north within the district. But the station is dilapidated. Unkempt, dirty and dusty. Bills stuck on walls only in Sinhala language. Nothing in other languages given the notion many tourists arriving to watch the sunset. Passengers waiting for trains are inconvenient because the toilet doors always locked and one must trek to the office to pick up the keys for the door. The train time table is not accurate and its concealed inside the passengers seating are. The station needs complete overhaul. Solicitation is rampant.

My first train experience in Colombo was interesting. It's a good spot for watching the sunset and catching a train, but the cleanliness leaves much to be desired, and peak hours can be quite hectic.

This train station is bit isolated. But, crowded during office and school opening / closing times. Not all trains are stopped here. Only commuter town service trains stop here. If you are going to Wellawatta Beach, this is the best place to get down since the bus route is bit far from the beach.

Wellawatta Railway Station is one of the most beautiful coastal railway stations located in Colombo district. The most important feature of this railway station is that it is located in a completely natural environment located on the coast. It is also a very busy railway station. Here are some beautiful photos and videos taken when I visited Wellawatta for the first time…🤩🛤️🚂🚈🌿✌🏻

One of the busy railway station in the coastal line. Located right behind the popular Wellawatte Beach so if you wanna go there by train, this is the place to get off.

One railway station in Sri Lanka with a set of officers with a sense of customer friendly attitude. Went to book seats from Colombo Fort to Babulla. They were very friendly and courteous and also quite attentive helping to clarify all your doubts and efficiently doing the maximum they could to book seats for as many passengers as possible with the most unrealistic booking system ever to book a simple train seat. Thank you to every staff member of wellawatte Railway station. Keep it up 👍

the beach near the wellawaththa railway station is one of the beautiful place to spend evening. Because it is less crowded and feel the freedom with beautiful sunset.
