Teni is a railway station on Madurai–Bodinayakkanur branch line, serving the town of Theni in Tamil Nadu state, India. It was closed, as the line is under gauge conversion, from metre to broad gauge until 30 March 2022. From 31 March 2022 once again this station becomes operational after CRS inspection is successfully conducted between Andipatti to Theni railway station. It is one of the railway stations in Southern Railway zone. It falls under Madurai Division of the Indian Railways.

The Madurai–Bodinayakanur line was sanctioned for gauge conversion, from metre-gauge (1,000 mm (3 ft 3 3⁄8 in)) to broad gauge (1,676 mm (5 ft 6 in)). It was closed on 1 January 2011, expecting to reopen it by 2012, but due to lack of funds, the project advanced at very slow pace. Finally, on 23 January 2020, the first stretch between Madurai Junction and Usilampatti (37 km) was inaugurated, after passing the inspection of the Commission of Railway Safety.

Bodinayakkanur railway station is a railway station on Madurai–Bodinayakkanur branch line, serving the town of Bodinayakkanur in Tamil Nadu state, India. Currently it is closed, as the line is under gauge conversion, from metre to broad gauge.
