Reaching Jaipur by Rail? Jaipur is also well connected by trains. Jaipur is on the Broad Gauge and also the main railway junction of Rajasthan and hence connected to all the metro cities of India.

However, if one has money and leisure, there is no better option than the Palace-on-Wheels, which leaves Delhi every Wednesday.
