Indian Railway Tickets
By far the easiest way to book tickets on Indian trains is to use cleartrip.com. It has a similar layout to kayak.com and is a gift from heaven compared to the official government website. Another useful site is yatra.com, which allows you to book tickets per special quotas such as women-only and tourist. Once you’ve purchased your ticket online, you’ll still need to bring a printout of it, but that can be done for a mere 10 rupees in most places.
