Railway Halts of Sri Lanka

Estate Halts and Platforms
Hyndford
Hyndford (HYP) is a rather decrepit estate or
plantation halt, badly maintained and further disfigured by political posters.
The fact that some of the local poor people still use this halt, is a good
enough reason for maintaining it as a halt.
Location:
Main Line at 89:29 and between Nawalapitiya and Inguru Oya.
Train services:
Some mixed local baby trains between Nawalapitiya and Hatton stop here. The
main trains, Udarata Menike, Podi Menike and the Night Mail Train do not stop
here. There is no ticket office. The guard on the train sells tickets.
