It also has a Railway Carriage and Wagons Workshop: one of the three in the Eastern Railways. The other two being at Kanchrapara and Jamalpur. The Liluah Railway station has 5 platforms with 3 mainly being used for the Howrah-Bardhaman Main Line and the other two for the Howrah-Bardhaman Chord Line. The Belur Math Line branches off between Liluah and Belur. There is also a line connecting Liluah and Andul in the South Eastern Railways. It is used by goods trains.

Most parts of Liluah fall within the Howrah Municipal Corporation while the remaining parts come under the Bally Municipality. The railway line divides Liluah into 2 parts. It takes 8 minutes to travel from Howrah to Liluah (a distance of 5 km) by a suburban local train. But the same journey takes 15 minutes when going from Liluah To Howrah due to bulk railway traffic coming in and out of the Howrah station which is the biggest railway junction in India.
