• Take note of the seating options available on your chosen train. Indian Railways typically offers Sleeper Class, AC 3 Tier, AC 2 Tier, and First Class options for this route. AC 2 Tier provides more comfort and privacy if you prefer a quieter environment, while Sleeper Class is the most economical.

There are facilities for luggage storage at the station operated by the Railways, which can be convenient if you want to explore the city without your bags. Be sure to also note that restrooms are available, but showers might not be accessible. To reach the city center quickly, opt for a rickshaw or taxi outside the station.

Always confirm prices and routes with the drivers before boarding.
