The station is Rameswaram and my guess is that the train is Egmore - RMM passenger.

Ooty never had these type of locos. This should be SBC, then PF 5 or TPJ PF 1.

I don't think SBC would have qualified as an important tourist destination in 1982 :-) My guess would be Mysore.

Madurai? Have only been there once and that too in the BG era, but I think some of the platforms are curved.

Manish has guessed it correctly - This is Mysore Jn. platform No. 3 and the train is 965 Hassan - Mysore passenger. Manish is also right that in 1982 Bangalore was hardly a tourist town and whether it still is is open to debate. I am NOW replacing the modified image (station name was obliterated for the Quiz) with the original which shows the station name.
