Hi,You need to lodge FIR with railway station police then you can claim the money from insurer, if your vehicle insured. You can not claim from railway dept. If you opted for travel baggage insurance then you can claim against your baggage. approach lawyer as early as possible preferably in less than 1 week of time after the incident.
