🎫 How to book train tickets:
Book through Indian Railway's official site — irctc.co.in. You can search for available tickets without logging in, but you need to register and login to book tickets.
The OTP for registration should work on your international phone number as well.
You can use your international credit or debit card to book train tickets.
You can also buy a ticket at the train station counter, though seat availability is not guaranteed.
💺 Recommended travel classes:
1st AC (1A) or 2nd AC (2A) — the most convenient and comfortable travel with air conditioning, berths, and privacy.
AC Chair Car (CC) — good for shorter day journeys.
2nd Class Sleeper (SL) — a budget-friendly option if AC classes are not available. No air conditioning but you get a reserved berth.
⚠️ General Compartment is not recommended — you don't have a guaranteed seat, and often you will be left standing without a seat.
