Thrissur:The Thrissur Railway Station which is all set for a facelift by the beautification on both the main and second entrances has now got four 3D wall paintings as well.
They are adorning walls of the lifts on first and second platforms.
The station is gaining a new look with several ongoing beautification projects on both the entrances. A vertical garden and palm trees will come up at the main entrance. All the works associated with the facelift will be completed by January 15.
“The concept behind the 3D paintings was first pitched by a member of the station consultative committee which consists of several prominent persons in Thrissur including businessmen and deputy mayor. The total cost is '2 lakh, and an art house in Tamil Nadu named Mayapuri is the sponsor,” station director K. M. Basha said.
The station had already several paintings on its entrance, ticket counter area, waiting rooms and the 350-metre long wall on the southern side of the first platform.
“The entire concept is to increase the non-pay income, and the sponsors of the all these paintings will get free space for placing their logos,” Mr Basha added.
