Jaisalmer Railway Station Facilities & Tips
Station has 3 platforms, 1 foot overbridge (no lift), small waiting hall, IRCTC stall. No cloakroom officially. At night, station area dark, avoid touts offering "cheap hotel + cab combo" — 30% commission. Best: Pre-book cab, get driver at gate, go direct hotel. If arriving 4:30 AM, keep shawl — desert morning cold in Dec-Jan (8°C). For Fort hotels, ask driver to call hotel for e-rickshaw as car can't enter Dhibba Para narrow lanes.
