To have a good sleep and a more comfortable trip, travelers are highly recommended to book a sleeper instead of hard seat. It is not recommended to take 1461/ 1462 though the ticket price is a little cheaper. They take longest time and have more stop-bys along the trip.
 

Flight

Alternatively, there are flights available between. But the flight tickets usually cost much more than rail tickets. Sometimes during the off season, good discount may be offered. Passengers can make a comparison based on the schedule and price. Also, please kindly notice that airports in both cities are far from the city center and you’d better reserve enough time for transfer.
