'''Chaibasa Railway Station''' is a main railway station in the [[Chakradharpur railway division|Chakradharpur division]] of the [[South Eastern Railway zone|South Eastern Railways]] serving [[Chaibasa]], the district headquarters of [[West Singhbhum district|West Singhbhum]] district in [[Jharkhand]]. Its code is '''CBSA'''. The station consists of three platforms. All the platforms are connected with a well organized railway footbridge, leading to the staff quarters situated on the other side.

The railway station has 4 trains halting which are 20815/20816 [[Visakhapatnam railway station|Visakhapatnam]]-[[Tatanagar Junction railway station|Tatanagar]] SF Express, 12021/12022 [[Barbil railway station|Barbil]]-[[Howrah railway station|Howrah]] [[Jan Shatabdi Express]], 20891 / 20892 [[Tatanagar–Brahmapur Vande Bharat Express]], 2 passenger trains from [[Tatanagar Junction railway station|Tatanagar]] to [https://indiarailinfo.com/station/map/gua-gua/5958 Gua] and [[Barbil railway station|Barbil]], and a [[MEMU]] between [https://indiarailinfo.com/station/map/gua-gua/5958 Gua] and [[Tatanagar Junction railway station|Tatanagar]]. [[Chaibasa]], lying on the branch line of the [[Tatanagar–Bilaspur section|Tatanagar-Bilaspur section]] of [[Howrah–Nagpur–Mumbai line|Howrah-Nagpur-Mumbai line]], is not well connected with the overall traffic of [[Indian Railways]].

The best connected place is [[Jamshedpur]] which is 60 kms away with many halting trains leading to [[Tatanagar Junction railway station|Tatanagar Junction]]. The second best connected place is [[Chakradharpur]] which is 26 kms away. There are many buses and private vehicles leading to [[Chakradharpur]] and other satellite villages on the way. It is well connected with [[Kolkata]], thanks to the Barbil-Howrah Jan Shatabdi Express.

The structural upgradation of Chaibasa railway station and addition of a 4th line has been proposed by the Indian Railways for better connectivity.
