Hello from Australia
We my wife and I are intending to travel by train from Goa to Mumbai CST on March 14th 2010.
some questions please.
1. We are staying in Candolim in Goa so which station is closest the best etc to board a train to Mumbai on that date.
2....
more...

I think that the Trivandrum Rajdhani express which would be the ideal train for us to catch from Goa but the website indicates that this train concludes at Panvel station, so does this train actually go to Mumbai CST so we can depart from that station rather than change trains in a situation we are not familiar with?
3. Any suggestions re which train would be best that leaves in the morning and gets to Mumbai in daylight hours would be appreciated that would suit western travellers etc.
3. How should we book a ticket on a train for 1st class or 2 AC? Can we do this on your website prior to our departure to India in February?
Many thanks for your assistance.
