Unfortunately, the road wins hands down in the modern real world .... but the railway is such a remarkable piece of 140 year old history!! It's superb. Andy
@@AndyDandanFisherSteam that was not also the full route when in 18th century they made it . After Kurseong lines diverted into two . One part go to NJP railway station, and one to kishanganj ( bihar, state), Many in current don't know about it . Thus you could reach Darjeeling via njp or kishanganj, now only njp . That track is now out of order but some remains are still laid. When the track was first laid Darjeeling was not the last stoppage, there was another line from it which connects a district in Darjeeling only . But area become conjested and they the remove it too . But some remains can still be found. In Darjeeling history i Heard there were two loco shed but now if i visit there's only 1 , i Just wonder what happened to the second one. Scrapped and removed probably.
This is fascinating. It would be great if a video could be made from the loco perspective of the climb. And to think these locos are about 100 years old.
Unfortunately they wouldn't let me ride on the footplate. They are very small locos though and there were already five people riding on there at times! Andy

In theory, a steam loco's cylinders (or any other part)could seize if not lubricated properly. Steam locos require regular lubrication every day .... sometimes several times through the day. Andy
They didn't need it , the cog system while able to climb steep inclines is expensive to build and maintain with more complex locomotives . This is a long line and These B class tanks are still doing their job after a century , you can't do much better than that .

Steam locomotives are bad polluters, but most of what you can see in the smoke are the particulates which fall to the ground rapidly. The real damage is done by greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide. These are given out in just as large a quantity by road vehicles, aircraft, ships and power stations. There are only a tiny number of steam locos left working and they are beautiful and fascinating machines. They are a valuable relic from our industrial past and need to be saved from destruction. The pollution from these few steam locos is TINY compared to the pollution from the billions of road vehicles, aircraft and ships in the world. Getting rid of just a handful of steam locomotives will make no difference to the world but getting rid of the pollution from road vehicles would probably sort the problem in one move. If you’d like to save our Earth from disaster, please get rid of your car or motor bike, don’t buy anything that has been delivered by air, sea or lorry, switch off your electricity at home, never go on holiday by aircraft or car.

Train is smoking very high. Government can improve it, as it is a hill destination and it is a very sensitive area on the perspective of nature. So it seems government has left the Darjeeling railway system as it was in the days of British. So sad

बहुत ज्यादा खतरनाक हैं ये क्युकी पर्दुसन ओर ओर जहरीला धुआँ छोड़ रही है
स्टीम लोकोमोटिव खराब प्रदूषक हैं, लेकिन आप धुएं में जो कुछ भी देख सकते हैं उनमें से अधिकांश कण हैं जो तेजी से जमीन पर गिरते हैं। असली नुकसान कार्बन डाइऑक्साइड जैसी ग्रीनहाउस गैसों से होता है। ये सड़क वाहनों, विमानों, जहाजों और बिजली स्टेशनों द्वारा बड़ी मात्रा में दिए गए हैं। केवल बहुत कम संख्या में स्टीम लोको काम कर रहे हैं और वे सुंदर और आकर्षक मशीनें हैं। वे हमारे औद्योगिक अतीत से एक मूल्यवान अवशेष हैं और विनाश से बचाने की आवश्यकता है। दुनिया के अरबों सड़क वाहनों, विमानों और जहाजों से होने वाले प्रदूषण की तुलना में इन कुछ स्टीम लोको से होने वाला प्रदूषण टिनि है। यदि आप हमारी पृथ्वी को आपदा से बचाना चाहते हैं, तो कृपया अपनी कार या मोटर बाइक से छुटकारा पाएं, ऐसी कोई भी वस्तु न खरीदें जो हवा, समुद्र या लॉरी द्वारा पहुंचाई गई हो, घर पर अपनी बिजली बंद कर दें, कभी भी छुट्टी पर न जाएं विमान या कार। आसान नहीं है, है ना?

How much smoke it releasing
Steam locomotives are bad polluters, but most of what you can see in the smoke are the particulates which fall to the ground rapidly. The real damage is done by greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide. These are given out in just as large a quantity by road vehicles, aircraft, ships and power stations. There are only a tiny number of steam locos left working and they are beautiful and fascinating machines. They are a valuable relic from our industrial past and need to be saved from destruction. The pollution from these few steam locos is TINY compared to the pollution from the billions of road vehicles, aircraft and ships in the world. Getting rid of just a handful of steam locomotives will make no difference to the world but getting rid of the pollution from road vehicles would probably sort the problem in one move. If you’d like to save our Earth from disaster, please get rid of your car or motor bike, don’t buy anything that has been delivered by air, sea or lorry, switch off your electricity at home, never go on holiday by aircraft or car. Not easy, is it?

What's views
Beautiful isn't it? - Andy
Why that guys sitting in front of loco
The guy with the white shirt is the "boss" of the line. They're on the front of the loco to look out for any problems. I think there's no shortage of workers in India!!
Andy
They don't have money for ticket
No, their primary duty is to pour sand on the lines to creat more traction during wheel slipping

@@alokechakraborty935 They probably also can do that but during our ride that was not done by either man on the front. The man in the white shirt is the boss of the railway and he was making sure that everything ran well for us.

Very good.
Nice
It's an amazing little railway ..... Andy
now it is beautiful....if railway dept control polution from this... it looks more beautiful
Yes if they use use diesel instead of coal
Video yang sangat bagus 👍👍👍❤️
Thank you - Andy
Train is smoking very high. Government can improve it, as it is a hill destination and it is a very sensitive area on the perspective of nature. So it seems government has left the Darjeeling railway system as it was in the days of British. So sad

In my bucket list!!
I recommend that you go there very soon because the line may not be able to operate for much longer. Most trains are diesel powered but steam trains can still operate if paid for ...... Andy

Wel mooi zone stoomtrein, maar wel heel vuil
This line is a major tourist attraction for the Darjeeling area and brings in valuable foreign money. However, I agree that steam locomotives are bad polluters. Most of what you can see in the smoke, though, are the particulates which fall to the ground rapidly. The real damage is done by greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide. These are given out in just as large a quantity by road vehicles, aircraft, ships and power stations.

Awesome,
Thank you ....... Andy
Lovely ... #HariKrishnaSahu
Thank you ... Andy
There is a guard too. for this toy train.. hehe
Even the DHR has to follow the rules !! ....... Andy
Is this still traveling?
Yes. The railway still operates but is struggling for money to keep going. It uses diesel locos for most services ...... Andy
Mian Hussain on.

Very nice video! Liked 👍👍👍

dekhate hi pahachan gaya ki ye india ki train h kuki bina fatak k to railway track india me hi ho sakata hai
ऐसे कई स्थान हैं जहां क्रॉसिंग में केवल भारत ही नहीं, कोई द्वार या अवरोध नहीं है
aise kaee sthaan hain jahaan krosing mein keval bhaarat hee nahin, koee dvaar ya avarodh nahin hai
There are many places where crossings have no gates or barriers, not only India

Wow!!!!
Impressive, isn't it? Andy
Que fumaceiro ........
seems like it takes longer time than cars
It probably does ..... but it was built 140 years ago!! Andy
Yeah.... It takes...
太好玩了，夹皮沟”的小🔥车出动了😅😅😅😂😂✌️烧煤球的😭 有害物质排放量太吓人
排放物类似于柴油发动机，但有更多的微粒会迅速落到地面上。
The emissions are similar to a diesel engine but have more particulates which fall to the ground quickly ....... Andy

Зачем люди сидят спереди на паровозе? Им места не хватило в вагонах? Или это обслуживающий персонал?
На линии нет сигнализации, и она часто пересекает дороги. Они здесь, чтобы предупредить о любой опасности
There is no signalling on the line and it crosses roads often. They are there to warn of any danger ..... Andy
Nice vide5
Thank you. Andy
Hy
So Darjeeling is an ultimate destination of
But air pollution is huge
Darjeeling is a must see. The pollution from these little locos is nothing compared to that from the billions of road vehicles around. Any large city in the world is far far worse than these beautiful hills.
Andy
@Daniel Mathai Agreed !! Andy
No man. There is lots of jungles and green environment that's why there is no pollution.
@@sunilthapa7815 There are also diesel buses and trucks working hard all day long going up and down the road which follows the railway up into the hills. I can tell you from personal experience that the fumes from these are awful and polluting, even though they're not quite as visible as the smoke from the steam locos. You must remember that one train replaces several buses.
Andy
Lol no pollution there buddy
Beautiful nice
It's one of the greatest rail journeys on Earth .... Andy
how polluting; they should replace the engine with electric one!

Andy and Dandan Fisher - Steam Around the World : Your comments never disappoint 😆😆
Great work on the Sandalong coal mines.
Cheers from Down Under 👍
@@TrainManFromOZ Thank you Train Man !!! .... Andy
Are you kidding! It's a part of our heritage. It's not your regular passenger express!
@@fieldmarshal7298 Agreed ..... Andy
fabulous video...i have subscribed your channel
Thank you very much. Please take a look at some of my other videos. I have about 1000 recorded all around the world ........ Andy
sure ....atmost we are train lovers
Human ballast on the front???
Haha!! It could be. They're there to keep a look out for dangers on the track and where the train crosses roads. The man in the white shirt is the line manager who was there specially for our charter train ..... Andy
Super
Thank you for your comment. The Darjeeling Railway is a marvellous piece of India's heritage .... Andy
Good Train
It's an amzing little train and an astonishing 50 mile ride up into the Himalayan foothills ...... Andy
Superb 👍
Thanks. I agree ...... Andy
Why those two spidermen?
They are supposed to be there to look out for any obstructions on the line. The guy in the white shirt is the boss of the line - there to make sure everything ran well for us!
