কলকাতার, বিশেষ করে হাওড়া ও শিয়ালদহ স্টেশনের যাত্রীচাপ কমাতে ......চিৎপুর/ কলকাতা স্টেশনের মতো রামপুরহাটকে একটি বড় টার্মিনাল হিসেবে উন্নয়ন করা উচিত , এর ফলে ছোট শহরের মানুষদের আর দুরপাল্লার ট্রেন ধরতে কলকাতা যেতে হবে না।

পূর্ব রেলওয়ে (ER) বিশেষ করে, হাওড়া ও শিয়ালদহ ডিভিসন সম্পূর্ণরূপে কলকাতাকেন্দ্রিক, শহর কলকাতার বাইরের অঞ্চলের প্রয়োজন সবসময় উপেক্ষা করে। তুলনামূলকভাবে, উত্তর-পূর্ব সীমান্ত রেলওয়ে অনেক ভালো, তারা শুধুমাত্র বালুরঘাট থেকে নয়, রাধিকাপুরের মত নিম্ন আয়যোগ্য স্টেশন থেকেও দুরপাল্লার ট্রেন চালাতে সক্ষম।
