Train from Jaipur to Mumbai

Can anyone tell me what time the over night train leaves from Jaipur to Mumbai?

Can we just buy the ticket the day before or do we need to book in advance?

With thanks,

The 2956 superfast leaves Jaipur at 14=05 and reaches Mumbai Central at 08=00 the next morning. This train runs daily.

The 2980 superfast leaves Jaipur at 20=30 and reaches Bandra Terminus at 14=40 the next afternoon. This runs every Mon., Wed. and Fri.

The above timings are from the IR website, which hasn't been updated to accomodate the new Time Table effective July 1, 2005.

Its always better to book in advance, if feasible.

Thanks very much.
So should we purchase the ticket at a travel agent before we leave or can we just get a ticket the day before we leave?
Is it a difficult process purchasing tickets?
We have a flight to catch from Mumbai the day after arriving in and we'd hate to miss it!

As your journey date seems to be fixed, you can always book the Jaipur-Mumbai ticket over the internet and have it delivered to a pre-determined address in a pre-determined city.

The website for internet booking is here
