Is it possible to leave luggage at a cloak room / locker room which is situated at a station other than the 'Journey Originating Station' but NOT far away from it?
For example, I have a sleeper class ticket booked for journey from CSTM (Mumbai CST) to NGP (Nagpur). I plan to reach Mumbai a few days before the journey starts, in order to do some sightseeing. So, is it possible to leave my luggage at a cloak room situated at a nearby station (at DADAR or MUMBAI CENTRAL or BANDRA TERMINUS etc. where I may put down at arrival via volvo bus/travels) showing my journey ticket starting from CSTM? This way it may save a trip to and fro CSTM station

Thanks for Reply. Are you sure? Is there any documentation or Railway Rules/Manual where this thing may be referred to? Or anyone you know has ever in such situation?

Re# 971565-5              
Thanks for the info and links.
I have read the F.A.Q.s and have already done some search on Indian railways' websites, but i did not come around anything properly stating whether the luggage could be left at a cloak room which is SITUATED AT a station OTHER THAN originating or destination stations in the journey ticket. IRCM (commercial manual) also doesn't state it properly.
I hope that it is allowed. As it may save time and unessential travel for luggage maintenance. Thanks again.

The Train has departed from its originating station but still PNR status shows "CHART NOT PREPARED" till the time of posting this question.
Does anyone know why it is still showing 'Chart Not Prepared'?
Is this thing common in any other trains in Indian Railways?
The journey is reserved from ST/Surat to DDR/Dadar which starts on 02 Jan 2013 at 12:30 hrs. The PNR

    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...
