Karaman railway station

Karaman railway station is a station in Karaman, Turkey. Situated in the northern part of the city, it is served by the Taurus Express and the Konya-Karaman Regional, which totals to three daily trains, in each direction. Since early 2017, a new larger station is under construction in anticipation of high-speed YHT trains that will serve the station, once the Polatlı-Konya high-speed railway is extended to Karaman.[2]
