The station falls in the Chennai railway division of the Southern Railway zone of the Indian Railways. Officially it bears the code CGL.
The lines at the station were electrified on 9 January 1965, with the electrification of the Tambaram—Chengalpattu section.
The Chengalpattu train station is located at the heart of the Chengalpattu city, on the banks of the Kolavai Lake. It is situated on the SH-58, and opposite to its main entrance lies the TNSTC and Mofussil bus terminals. There is also a statue in the memory of Periyar outside the train station.
The station is a part of the Chennai–Villupuram line and another line, the Arakkonam–Chengalpattu line.
The nearest airport from the station is the Chennai International Airport located at a distance of nearly 42 kilometres from the city.
The Chengalpattu Junction being a focal point on the Chennai–Villupuram line, inevitably means that every south-bound train from Chennai has to operate via the junction thus making it one of the most crowded railway stations of the Indian Railways.
There also several suburban trains operating from and through the station towards Chennai and the station holds prime importance in the South and South-west lines of the Chennai Suburban Railway.
