Delhi to Katra Train Ticket Price

I have been researching on the internet to find out the Delhi to Katra train ticket price, but I am not able to find the price.

I am trying to find out how much of a difference there is in the Delhi to Katra train and the Delhi to Jammu train which we usually take, if the cost is not much I can make the Delhi to Katra train booking.

 

Hello, welcome to the forum!

​

Overview

The distance between Delhi and Katra is about 634 kilometres which can take around 10 hours of driving or more. With public transportation, the journey duration can be longer, especially with trains which can take around 12 to 15 hours long. For a long while, pilgrims of Katra had to reach Jammu first, before the creation of the Katra's very own railway station. On July 2014, the Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Katra Railway Station was opened to the public and made way for an easier transportation means of reaching the Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Temple in Katra. For those wondering about the ticket rates from Delhi to Katra via train, this guide would help you learn more about that.
