Mumbai has five great railway stations, and each one is a city of its own at train time. The house meets you where your coach stops, takes the cases from the door, walks you out by the right gate, and has the car waiting — whether the train is on time or not.
Your sarathi is on the platform where your coach will stop, with a board in your name. He takes the cases from the door.
The house follows the train's running from its last stations. A late train re-times the car without a word from you; the sarathi waits on the platform until you step down.
Platforms in Mumbai are long and crowded. The sarathi walks with you to the car; for more than a couple of cases, a licensed porter of the railway carries them.
Home, the hotel, the airport, or straight on to Pune, Nashik or Lonavala in the same car, written as one figure.
The old terminus at the edge of the Fort, and a World Heritage building. The Central Railway's long-distance trains begin and end here, among them the Deccan Queen to Pune, which leaves in the early evening and returns mid-morning, and the Deccan Odyssey, which sets out and returns here between September and May — the house takes its guests to check-in in the afternoon of departure and meets them on the last morning.
The Western Railway's terminus in the heart of the island city, where the Rajdhani from Delhi and the Vande Bharat from Gujarat arrive. The car waits on the side the coach is nearest to.
Not Bandra station: a separate terminus a short way north of it, reached by a narrow approach that queues at train time. Trains for Gujarat, Rajasthan and the north. Tell the house the train, and the car is at the right gate.
Long-distance trains to the south, the east and the north, many of them arriving late at night, and a terminus visitors find hardest to leave. The house meets the coach and walks you out.
Both railways stop here, on opposite sides of one crowded station. The house reads the train and meets you on the right side — Central or Western — rather than the nearest one.
The house times the car to have you on the platform with time to find the coach — earlier at LTT and Bandra Terminus, where the approach roads queue. The sarathi carries the cases to the coach and sees you aboard.
Inside every written figure: the car, your sarathi, fuel, every toll, parking at both ends and GST. Nothing is added on the day, and no meter runs.
