Travelling by Train in India
Expert, Mark Smith, offers some tips about train travel on an Indian holiday.
India’s massive rail network is a wonderful way to get around and see the country. Indian Railways
runs the third biggest rail network after Russia and China. Train journeys aren’t merely transportation;
they become an integral part of your trip. In many ways you haven’t enjoyed the full experience of
India without witnessing bustling Indian railway stations and riding long-distance on an Indian train.
They are complete with the tea seller singing ‘Chai, chai, garam chai’ and dispensing cups of
addictive hot sweet tea.
You can forget those images of overcrowded commuter trains with passengers hanging on the side or
sitting on the roof. You’ll be travelling on long-distance trains with your seats safely reserved for you,
with air-conditioning and reasonably comfortable sleeping compartments at night with clean sheets
and pillows.
Indian trains have eight different classes of compartment, but second class is the popular choice for
most tourists. It has air-conditioned seating in open bays of four on one side of the aisle and bays of
two on the other. At night, the seats convert to sleeping berths, bedding is provided and curtains give
a degree of privacy. Second class is the way that Indian families travel, and you’ll meet many of them
on board.
First class is available on the best trains, and consists of lockable two-berth and four-berth sleeper
compartments. You’ll be travelling with army officers and bank managers. A compartment in first class
is reasonably priced. For short distances an ‘Air-Conditioned Chair Car’ offers open-plan seating and
is a good choice, especially on the fast, more expensive, express trains.
You can buy tickets at the station where you start your journey. Indian trains are very busy, however,
and are often fully booked, weeks in advance. Nevertheless, a remarkably effective system of
reservations has been developed and the most important trains have a limited ‘tourist quota’ for
visitors that allows last minute bookings.
