Into the station

The UNESCO listed Darjeeling Himalaya Toy Train (1880's locomotive) steaming into the Darjeeling Railway Station...down the main street. It is a very narrow gauge mountain railway, taking about 10 hours to ascend from Siliguri and travel 70 kilometers to Darjeeling at around 2000 meters in the Himalayas. A real relic of the British Raj, when Darjeeling was the main Hill Station in India, where people escaped from summer in Calcutta, the then capital of British India
