My parents are visiting Shillong via Delhi.while there they would like to visit Gangtok as well.Are there?

Question

direct trains from Gangtok to Mumbai? or does one have to travel to Delhi or Calcutta? what is the best route to take if one eventually wants to get to Goa?

Answer 1

Trains go to Siliguri. Not further.

Gantok is approachable by road only.

There is a station called Barauni in Bihar. I think the train to Siliguri from Delhi goes from that.

Like one has to change in Barauni Station for Siliguri.

And Shillong via Delhi means the train will surely go via those Bihar stations. Mokamah (Bihar) is near Barauni. Find out the route of that train. Maybe it goes to Barauni too. Whether it syops or not is another matter.

We drove from Bihar. To Darjeeling and Gantok.

Best is to check on www.irtc.com. It is a Govt site for Railways.

Find out trains to Siliguri.
