    New Delhi Railway station (NDLS)- Bikes can be collected 24hrs with Sunday being off. However they cannot be booked from NDLS if the owner dsnt have a confirmed ticket in the train in which he intends to send the bike. For booking the bike the owner neeeds to accompany it in the same train on a confirmed ticket. Booking can be done 24hrs.

    Nizamudin(NZM) - Bikes which have been sent (w/o the owner accompanying it in the train) can collect in only from 0900-1700 hrs with sunday being off.
    Bikes which are accompanied with owners in the same train can collect it 24hrs. The return booking is along same lines as NDLS


    :- Bikes can be collected 24hrs with Sunday being off..

    So you mean to say if i take the train from Mumbai on Saturday & reach Delhi on Sunday morning, i wont be able to collect my bike on Sunday, as they have an off on Sunday.

    So its only possible to collect the bike on Monday.

    Please shed some light on this ?

        I also want to know more about this. Say If we reach on Sunday by train, is it not possible to collect the bike ? I'm talking about the case when I'm taking my bike as a personal luggage. I think it should not be a problem, but you never know

        By the way, which train do the Hyderabad folks prefer?

              • If you are taking your bike with you as luggage, you can get it 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If you are sending your bike as parcel (without you travelling in the same train), you can book or take delivery only between 10 am to 5 pm Monday - Saturday.

                    • Go for GATI in case you dont have time in hand.

                      GATI would be expensive than the railways, but safety and security of your bikes can be guaranteed if you send through them..

                      Wish you a safe journey..

                            Vishwas confirmed, they are pretty much useless there....
                            If you still want it... head to Juna bazaar... theres no shop or store as such.
