That suggests booking is not allowed for given pair of stations. Please try booking to a further station, say Karjat or Lonavala. The train has a halt at Neral so you can alight there.

As the error message itself suggests, the system is not allowing bookings between 2 stations considered part of the same metropolitan area. If you choose a station further away, it should let you book. You can then get down from the train and any scheduled stop including and up to the destination you reserved.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
