Getting from Mumbai airport to Konkan Express trains

alex1306 · Oct 13th, 2009, 22:17

Hi, I will be landing in Mumbai at Terminal 2 at 21.05 and am hoping to get a train that departs from Mumbai CST at 23.00.
The train then stops at Dadar Central at 23.18.
Does anyone have an idea of whether I am likely to be able to make it to either station in this timeframe or should I find somewhere to stay in Mumbai and take a train the next day?

Any suggestions gratefully received!

Thanks!

is this on a public holiday?
do you have checkin luggage?
Are you coming from an international or domestic flight?

Assuming it is the domestic airport-
If you have check-in luggage , then theres very little chance that you will make it to either stations on time. Otherwise you might be able to get to Dadar from santacruz before the train - just have a taxi waiting for you ( Meru cabs is decent).

You cannot catch this train at dadar even if you land on time. the best way to catch this train is to take a taxi to Kurla railway station or Ghatkopar station from airport and catch a local train to Thane or take cab directly to Thane.
