In my previous video I had mentioned that Exploring the Dooars Branch line was one of my prime objectives of visiting the North-east Frontier zone. Well, here it is then; the second part of my Journey on board Kanchankanya Express (13149) from Sealdah to Alipurduar. This journey covers the beautiful Dooars region; where the train negotiates curve after curve; speed restrictions one after the other and meanders past various Forests, Tea Gardens and scarcely populated villages and towns; taking almost 4.5 hrs to cover the small 168 kms from New Jalpaiguri to Alipurduar. Enjoy the chugging of the BWN WDM-3A along with vibrant visuals of a stunning route. Special thanks to my friend Avinash Patil for accompanying me on this journey.

Elephant deaths are a major concern on this railway track running between Siliguri and Alipurduar. Almost half of this track runs through protected areas. Conversion from meter-gauge to broad-gauge has been a significant factor impacting the elephant populations, as it has lead to an increase in the number of fast-moving trains passing through this region.
