On 23rd August 2024, Darjeeling Himalayan Railway (DHR) entered its 144th Glorious Year of Service. It was declared as a UNESCO World Heritage Site on 5th December, 1999.

In Frame: The evening Steam ride from Darjeeling to Ghoom departing Batasia Loop closely followed by its diesel counterpart. One can also see a NDM-6 banker attached to the steam service.

Looks like this train is regularly getting cancelled recently. I have my journey planned next week. Can anyone let me know why is it getting cancelled ? What are the chances that it might get cancelled next week ?

Do you think if it is Technically possible to convert any of our famous Hill Railways to Broad Gauge? If yes, then which one is technically possible to be converted?
**Note: Here I am talking about only technical aspects, I am not saying whether we should convert any of our heritage railways, just possibility. If you think that instead of converting the existing track a separate parallel BG track can be constructed, then you can consider that option as technically possible too. Thanks!

Shame on NFR
they are using expired toy train coaches in DHR which is a UNESCO world heritage site. EVEN after complaining several times one of my followers on X said they are still using that coach on april 3 2024
Note that tickets are very expensive here
One user has tagged Gems on Engineering to raise issue on national level.
