TOURING ACROSS INDIA


We all knew that we have to plan our journey well in advance.When you are travelling with in the country(INDIA) ,travelling by trains seems to be economical and stands a fairer alternative tothe road transport.


You have the advantage of even attending your natural calls and Even you can walk along if you are making a long journey. Even if you fall ill during your journey on railways,there are good medical facilities available .you need to inform your TTI (Travelling Ticket Inspector) and same information is passed on to the nearest railway health unit which is on the way.So you will be attended soon by a Railway doctor. Food is never a problem once you are travelling in a train.Most of the Trains are provided with PANTRY CARS which serve almost good quality food. Even IRCTC is planning to provide Internet(RAIL NET ) to those travelling in First class .


If you are hailing from a metro city you can book your journey tickets at any of the nearest train reservation points and this is advisable also as to avoid the rush at the main terminals because of the huge number of passengers travelling by trains.If you have an access to net you can book the tickets online from the Indian Railways on line portal http://www.irctc.co.in.


one needs to be a registered user to do this. You can also know the running & reservation information from the other website i.e., http://www.trainenquiry.com .you can also visit the other site http://www.indianrail.gov.in .


you need to have a credit card or ATM card to book the tickets online.When filling the reservation form at a reservation counter you might have faced the problem of finding the station codes and train numbers.
