Significance

[edit ]

Kuri is one of the most neglected railway stations in India.[4] [5] Even railway authorities are forgetting sometimes to include this station in railway news and websites. This is the nearest railway station to Thalavoor Devi temple. Rural areas like Thalavoor, Mylom, Kura, Kulamudi, Alakuzhy, Thamarakudy in Pathanapuram/Kottarakara taluks are depending on this railway station.[6]
