The toy train coming from
Siliguri is some thing which is liked by the elders and the
children equally. The real fun in coming to Darjeeling is on the
toy train. It takes six to seven hours to cover a distance of 82
kms and the slow speed gives you enough time to watch and
appreciate the beauty which nature has provided it. This train
passes through the Forests, waterfalls, over deep valleys and
through the mountains and tunnels
The 86 km Darjeeling line has no tunnels , thus allowing the
traveler an uninterrupted view of the breathtaking scenery of
the Himalayas. The seven - and a - half hour ride up, is a
journey especially for rail buffs. |

While passing through the Himalayan Valley the
cruiser halts at New Jalpaiguri, Siliguri Town, Siliguri
Junction, Sukna, Rong Tong, Tindharia,, Gayabari, Mahanadi,
Kurseong, Tung, Sonada, Ghoom and finally Darjeeling |
