Rambukkana Railway Station (Sinhala; Sinhalese: රඹුක්කන දුම්රිය ස්ථානය, Tamil: ரம்புக்கனா ரயில் நிலையம்) is a railway station in the Kegalle District, Sabaragamuwa Province, Sri Lanka. The station is served by Sri Lanka Railways, which is the state-run railway operator.
The station is located 85.14km (52.9miles) from Colombo Fort railway station and 116.82m (383.27feet) above sea level. It is the start of the steepest incline along the Colombo - Kandy railway line, between Rambukkana and Kadigamuwa,[1] a climb of 430m (1,410feet) over 21km (13miles), with the gradient reaching a 1 in 44 slope, and curves of 201m (659feet) in radius.[2]
The line was originally double-tracked from Colombo to Rambukkana in 1933 however the section between Polgahawela and Rambukkana was reduced to a single track in 1940 after a bridge on the line was washed away.[2] This section was only re-instated as double track in 1998, as a result of an increasing numbers of passengers alighting at the station to visit the nearby Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage.[3]
