    If you’re staying at Vishnu Lok near Dehradun Railway Station, you can drop the kids right at the platform and then hop on a 10 minute taxi to Simtola that costs about ₹4,400 ₹5,000. This keeps everyone together and avoids the bus crowd that builds after 6 pm. A quick check of the train timetable shows a 6:00 am departure, so you could get a head start on the day. Does anyone know if the 6:00 am train is still running on weekends?
