Most people riding from Sadiqabad to Rawalpindi travel overnight and arrive at breakfast time. Fares start at about Rs 3,900 with Daewoo, and for passengers bound for Saddar, Raja Bazaar or the cantonment, the train into Rawalpindi station is a genuine alternative to the coach.

Coach or train into the city
The coaches price Rawalpindi and Islamabad as one stop, so the fare is identical. What changes is the drop point, and in Rawalpindi both main coach arrivals sit on the edge of the city rather than in it.
That is where the railway earns its place. Karachi to Peshawar trains stop at Sadiqabad and finish, or pass through, Rawalpindi station in the cantonment. The journey is much longer, but economy fares are low and you arrive a short rickshaw ride from Saddar.
