This Railway station is a main railway station of Patna and even Bihar. Trains to various destinations are available from here. Station is big and managed properly. Station remains crowded most of the time but it is neat and clean.
One can refill their water bottle with clean, cold and filtered water at low price from Platform no 1.
Exterior of railway station looks very attractive due to colourful lights and theme based paintings.

Patna station is the most busiest station of bihar but cleaning is still the matter of concern. There have been multiple renovation regarding the beautifulness of the place. Still cleanliness is needed outside the premises. For eg. taking autos for transportation from outside the station is a big hectic to deal off.

One of the main railway station of Bihar,
Too crowded.
Without booking you can't travel.
Even with booking there is no guarantee that you will get seat.
Wash rooms are average.
You will be confused if you are new to this place...

Patna junction is one of the major railway station, situated in the capital of bihar state. Patna station is the most busiest station of bihar but cleaning is still the matter of concern. Well maintained . Very good system for the parking. Outside structure is osm. It will roughly give you the importance of the Bihar.Most of the tourists place information are give at station.

Very nice service
Patna Junction railway station was opened in 1862 as Bankipore Junction[10] in Bankipore (Bankipur) town, headquarters of the division and Patna district in Bengal, British India.[11] The construction of railway line through Patna was started in 1855 and was completed and opened in 1862.[12] Prior to that the transport of raw materials and finished goods was done through the Ganga river.[2] The Danapur Division came into existence on 1 January 1925. The present Divisional Railway Managers's office building was built in 1929.[13]

In 1948 Eastern Railway (ER) started an exclusively third class express train known as 'Janta Express' on 1 October 1948. This initially ran between Patna and Delhi and later on was extended from Delhi up to Howrah in 1949. This was the first Janta Express train in India.[14]

At the Rajendra Nagar Terminal and Patna Junction route relay interlocking (RRI) system were installed between 7 February 2012 till 12 February. The presence of RRI system allows computer operated change of tracks for running trains.[15] The presence of RRT system improves the safety of the railway traffic in the region.[1]

Bridge
Edit
In 2009, the construction of Digha–Sonpur Bridge, was underway on the banks on the Ganges nearby, connected Patna to Pahleja Ghat. The railway part of bridge was opened to rail traffic from 3 February 2016 and railway started passenger service from Patliputra Junction to various railway stations on north side of Ganges in Bihar.[16][17][18]

One of the busiest junction of Bihar.
But lack of modern facilities.
No locker. No rest room,no dormitory service are available.no proper clean place..lots of dust,waste near junction.
You can catch train for gaya,sahara, begusarai, bhagalpur route director from here.
Railways board should redeveloped this station.
