Ahhh but first you need to know which train to go on :-) . I mean, for the top 20 cities, and direct trains between them you have lots of ways of finding the train numbers and times, there is the eponymous http://www.indianrail.gov.in that helps you. But for 2nd tier cities and for travel that requires connections, its been a real pain. So I wrote my own algorithm and a website - free and totally ad-free - www.bharatbyrail.com that finds the best trains between any two cities in India.
Armed with that, you can go to the IRCTC website and make the relevant booking.
