Pick a window seat so you can lean against the wall. Avoid noisy aisle seats or seats near doors, as they may cause discomfort. Some trains offer “quiet coaches,” which you might prefer.

For a night train journey, wear loose, comfy clothes that let you move freely. This will also help you sleep better during the night.

Indian trains have sleeping berths, but the weather can change at night. Pack a travel pillow and blanket—a soft pillow supports your neck, and a blanket keeps you warm.
