Tellippalai railway station (Tamil: தெல்லிப்பழை தொடருந்து நிலையம் Tellippaḻai toṭaruntu nilaiyam) is a railway station in the town of Tellippalai in northern Sri Lanka. Owned by Sri Lanka Railways, the state-owned railway operator, the station is part of the Northern Line which links the north with the capital Colombo. The station was not functioning between 1990 and 2015 due to the civil war. The Northern Line between Jaffna and Kankesanthurai was re-opened on 2 January 2015.[1][2]
