Chennai to Kolkata - 4 days
Chennai to Kolkata - 4 days
Hi all,
I am going from Chennai to Kolkata by train as part of a longer trip and have time for one stop. I don't like train journeys longer than about 16 hours, and would like to see something beautiful and to go to the beach. My plan is somethign like this:
Day 1 - leave Chennai in evening on overnight
Day 2 - spend time in stopping point
Day 3 - leave stoppping point on overnight
Day 4 - arrive Kolkata morning or early afternoon.
Can anyone recommend both a good stopping point (currently considering Vizag) and scenic train journeys? would be willing to extend the train time a little bit to say 20 hours for a nice view
thank you and hope you are all well

Thanks! I don't have time for two without avoiding three-four consecutive days of train travel, which I think I'm going to try to avoid. I would like to go to both, but I will be in Calcutta again, and Vizag is half way, but Bhubeneshwar is 20 hours and then 6 hours (or so).
I'm contemplating skipping the whole thing, sadly, because I love the train, and going to Pondi. Any thoughts?
