Nawalgarh to Delhi

The lonely planet mentions that Nawalgarh is on the train route to Delhi but when I do a search on irctc.co.in or on indian railways no trains come up. Does anyone know which trains go from Nawalgarh to Delhi?

Thanks.

The rail lines in the whole of the Shekhawati region are metre gauge, they used to run to Delhi via Rewari, but the metre gauge line between Rewari and Delhi has been converted to broad gauge, and all other metre gauge lines will soon close to be converted to broad gauge.

Either get a bus, or change your Itinerary so that you maybe go back to Delhi (or Agra) via Jaipur, or go north (or to Delhi) via Bikaner.

I think there are not direct buses from Nawalgarh to Delhi, go to Jhunjhunu 40 km from Nawalgarh and 27 from Mandawa.

Is it not possible to take a train from Shekhawati to Rewari and then switch trains for Delhi? I went from Delhi to Nawalgarh via Rewari last March...

I guess the replies would indicate poster is, but just to be sure: Is this about Nawalgarh, Rajasthan, or in Himachal Pradesh, or possibly somewhere else altogether?

Train No 9734 SHEKHAWATI EXP runs from Nawalgarh to Rewari via Jhunjunu.
Rewari is very well connected with Delhi.
