There is park approx 1.5 KMS away from Madgaon Jn. Its call Aga Khan Children's Park and just near to it there is Govt park. The Aga Khan was closed when we reached there (it was 2 PM) but Govt park was open. There was cool breeze flowing so we sat and enjoyed. The park was clean. Just nearby the park, there is ice-cream shop. Ice cream was really nice. The auto rickshaw charged Rs. 120 from railway station (outside pf 3) and same amount while returning to station. People were waiting just outside the park for buses going to various destinations in Goa

The charges for the AC Lounge (meant for AC passengers only) have been increased. The new rates are Rs 50 for 2 hours. Another Rs 40 for an additional two hours and a further Rs 40 for another addition of two hours.
The new platform # 4 looks good and there is a straight entry for pedestrians on to the platform from the city side road which makes it convenient. However, I was told that this new platform is not yet being used for passenger trains.
The Escalator to the FOB from Platform...

There are frequent Kadamba and private buses available from main enterence aswell as from Second enterence (towards Aquem side) from 06:30 to 20:00 there after no public transport to Madgaon City.

Retiring rooms are also available at station which can be booked well in advance through Konkan Railway website. Nearby station you will get many hotels..
Frequent Kadamba and private Buses from main entrance side ??
Are you fully confirmed about this ?
Bcoz i think Buses are present only on Pf 3 side , i.e second exit side , not at the front exit side.

There are frequent buses during morning time & evening time from main enterence. & Kadamba transport corporation also operates bus between Madgaon KTC bus stand to Railway station. It operates from main enterece side.
Never saw any buses on main entrance side.
Not morning time or not even at evening time. If you could post some pictures of the same when you visit madgaon station next time will be very very beneficial.
Last time due to No buses , i had to walk nearly 1 km on road to Main entrance side from Panaji main market area.

At Madgaon station we have both Veg and Non Veg areas in Ben Joes railway restaurant on platform 1. There is also a snacks window which serves items like idly, medu-wada, alu-bonda, mirchi bajji, dhokla, cool drinks etc . What is nice about this place is that it has a microwave which is used by the server to reheat items to make them piping hot before packing. However, the microwave cannot be seen by the customer and is used only when the customer insists. So ask for the reheating when you go there next.
