I have planned a trip to Ooty in 2nd week of January. I have already booked tickets for toy train from METUPALAIYAM (MTP) to UDAGAMANDALAM(UAM) . now there is Nilgiri Express by which I can travel from Coimbatore Jn. to Metupalaiyam Rly. Station. But this Nilgiri express arrives Metupalaiyam on 6:15 in morning and that toy train departs from Metupalaiyam on 7:10. so I was thinking about keeping reasonable time gaps,..... or is there any rule that this toy train departs only after arrival of that Nilgiri Express at Metupalaiyam ? Thanks and please advice for alternate transport for Coimbatore to Metupalaiyam for catching that toy train. I have booke return tickets too from Udagamanadalam (UAM) to Metupalaiyam.. that train arrives on 17:35 ... and I have to catch a train same day on 20:30 from Coimbatore Jn. so what will be the safe options for that too...
