Best option is to catch a night train & reach there in the morning & use your daytime.
One should make such trips in the day time while driving in cars.
BTW this is my personal thinking & moreover having made more than 100 trips from DELHI TO JAMMU/PATHANKOT on car,bus,train & even bike,i think i can help you out.
thanks breezydrive. bus is my first option as i can get off at asia hotel in jammu, which is my destination. almost all buses pass in front of that.
train is my second option...i will have to arrange some additional transport from station to asia hotel. i will go with trains you mentioned. i cant take a night bus/train as i will get free at around mid-night from my work and then i will have to travel to jammu. Hence the plan to travel in morning.
I would have loved to drive myself, but this time i will be travelling alone so dont want to drive 600+ kms all alone.
