Couldn't get confirmed tickets? Thinking to board the unreserved coaches? Believe me, its not that easy.
.
Only a limited number of tickets are sold by the ticket counters at Udagamandalam and even the counters are open for a brief amount of time. And people queue up from morning in peak seasons. Then again there's a queue to enter the coaches. So better be exceptionally quick! All the best!
