Thank you so much for the nformation on my posting. I find it difficult to navigate the website you suggested for a couple of reasons. One often times I get these error message s

Sorry, This particular service is unavailable at this time!!! or this error msg
access violation, reason mask=!XB, virtual address=!XH, PC=!X
Please Try Again

and also it is the unfamiliarity with the train station names. Is there a site where you have Indian cities and their train codes liste as thre are for airline city codes???

I was now trying to find transportation between MADDUR and TRIVANDRUM CENTRAL.

And on the Kokan website I can't figure that one out at all.

I actually would like to be able to get the information on my own as we expect to do a bit of train travel while in India. ?ut I do apreciate all of the help that V<caron> members give me when I thour up my hands in frustration.

Ya,:)) you will get error messg sometimes or offten :).
MADDUR and TRIVANDRUM CENTRAL hmmm i have doubt you have direct train connection, now am getting Error ,let u know later.

hi..

There are trains between Goa and Eranakulam. But it will take 12 to 14 hrs to travel. You can try Air and air that would cost you less than 120 USD.

rajdhani exp and mangla exp are both good trains,the former being faster.if you wish to fly try deccan air(india`s southwest airlines,i mean no frills airline).has many destinations in the south.
