One can only find railway stations in the foothills, and thus, cannot be yet called a well-connected destination by train. Uttarakhand railways department so far has 16 big and small railway stations which connect the state with major cities in India like Lucknow, Delhi, Kolkata, and Jaisalmer.

Dehradun, Haridwar, Kathgodam, Rudrapur, Tanakpur are a few railway stations that contribute in making travelling easy to Uttarakhand from other parts of the country.
