Aye, that's the one. Nalagarh! That's the name I was unable to recall. Very beautiful and scenic route. Bad roads, of course!
Thanks, Kurt!

Hey Sterin, you can try this road, scenic but in very bad shape. This can provide you a bit of hands on experience of Manali-Leh drive

Yogesh, if you mean the Mukarba Chowk Flyover, then yes, it has been made signal free and by-pass is no longer a bottle-neck.

Vaibhav I was talking about the stretch beyond that flyover, where we have to take the diversion on the left to go to Delhi border.

@sterintjose: Have you reserved a slot for your bikes on train? Or you will be doing it runtime?

Hi Ajay,

If you have already booked the tickets then its almost done. U have to go to luggage office at the railway station (City station - at Right most end) at least 4 - 5 hours before the departure and register ur bike as luggage. Cost will be around 2100/- max.

No need to go by agents. U need to have proper documents of the vehicle... RC, Pollution, Insurance etc. Carry 2 copies of the same for submitting at starting and ending stations (may be reqd. not sure about this)

You can't book slots in luggage compartment of a train. It depends on the availability of space in the luggage van. There shouldn't be any issue because in your case it is train's starting station (???).

Happy Journey,

Thanks,
Sterin
