Just like air travel, now beware of carrying excess luggage while travelling in trains as well. The excess luggage would have to be put in the luggage van. Passengers are allowed to book and carry excess luggage in the luggage van, up to the maximum limit, on the payment of a fee equivalent to one-and-a-half times the luggage rate. "If a passenger is found travelling with un-booked luggage weighing more than the free allowance, the excess weight will be charged six times the luggage rate. However, if he fails to do so and is caught with the excess luggage, he will end up paying a penalty of Rs 654.
