darjeeling himalayan railway

The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, nicknamed "Toy Train", is a 60cm narrow-gauge railway from Siliguri to Darjeeling in the state of West Bengal in India. It was built between 1879 and 1881 and is about 86km long. The elevation level is from about 100m in Siliguri to about 2200m in Darjeeling. It is - until today - powered by a steam engine. A modern diesel engine is used for the Darjeelings mail. Stations include Tindharia, Kurseong, Mahanadi, Toong, Sonada and Ghoom. Since 1999 the toy train is part of UNESCOs World Heritage Site.
