India Train Seasonal Time Changes
Many trains in India have seasonal time changes.
This means that during the summer they run slightly later than during the winter.
When you look at timetables for Indian trains in your guidebook or online, make sure you know which season you are looking at.
In some cases, the train could leave over an hour earlier or later than you think it will, causing you to miss your train or have a long wait at the station.
Some train timetables are posted in the train stations and aren’t adjusted for seasonal departure time changes, so make sure to ask for confirmation of the departure time before you book a ticket.
