What is the procedure for transporting one's pet dog from Calcutta to Delhi by train?

Question

Is there any possibility of reserving an entire coupe so that the pet can travel with its family?

Answer 1

I don't know about your places (I don't even know where those places are) but I travled from New York City, to Florida by train. My girl friends and I brought our dog along. We went there with no tickts, even for our selfs. When we went up to buy tickets, all we said, is we have a 20 pound dog that would would like to bring with up. They said we can do a number of things, one; bring the dog aboard, as long as it has a cage/case, second; (if you don't have a cage/case of your own) Rent a cage, that's in a sepperate car, and put it in there. They lonk it, and give you a key to it.

We did not have a a cage, but we had about an hour ontil our train came. There was a mall near, we went and bought a cage, (we needed one anyways) and we were able to keep the dog with us for the many hour trip..

No need to worry. Just go to the station and book the pet. Most trains have the canine carriers. They are kept near the guards van. In Long halts u can go and check out. If u can afford, then book an exclusive coupe in Ist class AC. In that case u can carry it along.
