From Chennai Pondicherry is approx. 150 KM & from Villupuram, Pondicherry is located at 40 Kms towards east. For every 15 minutes buses depart from Chennai & Villupuram to Pondicherry. There are 2 Passenger train runs in a day but I prefer u to go by bus. The train system in Pondicherry is infrequent and slow.
Practical way of getting to Pondicherry is by Bus. Reaching Pondicherry is fast and easy if you prefer travelling by road.
From Chennai following train runs

Trains are starting from Chennai to Pondicherry through Villupuram which will take you long journey around 4 to 5 Hours.
Best go road (ECR or through Tindivanam route), that will exactly take only 2 Hours and 30 Minutes.

Pondicherry is connected by rail to Villupuram (36 kms), which connects to Chennai and Madurai/Trivandrum. The trains to and from Pondy are slow and few. Another way is to take a train from Bangalore to Cuddalore.
Pondicherry is best accessible by road from Chennai, Bangalore and even from Kerala.
The best choice for getting to Pondy from Chennai (150 km) and Bangalore (320 km) is by taxi or bus. Buses depart from Chennai at the Tamil Nadu State Express Bus Stand at Parry's Corner on a regular basis and it takes about four hours to reach Pondy's bus stand. If you have a choice of buses, the East Coast Road is more scenic than National Highway 45 through Tindivanam.
