Train from agra / delhi to nepalese border (ish)

stepmac · Nov 14th, 2005, 04:28

Please can anyone tell me if it is possible to take a train from Agra to somewhere close to the Nepalese border or better still on the Nepalese border!!
My husband and I are backpacking around Northern India in April and wish to visit Kathmandu, Pokhara and Royal Chitwan NP.
We will be flying to Delhi after a few days we will travel to Jaipur then Agra from here we wish to go to Nepal for a week before returning to Delhi for a few days before we fly home. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
If there is no train service can anyone suggest other modes of transport.
Many thanks. we are first timers to India and although very excited rather nervous also.
Have booked to stay at the Master Paying Guesthouse whilst in Delhi as so many people on this site rave about it.

I've never done it myself but many travellers take the train to Gorukhpur and an onward bus to Nepal!!
