- Im Mai 2018 fuhren wir mit dem DHR-Güterzug von Siliguri nach Darjeeling. Mit 5 Güterwagen ging´s los, aber nach und nach "verloren" wir unseren Zug: Entgleisungen, technische Probleme... und am Ende waren nur noch 2 Wagen fahrfähig - mit denen rollten wir dann aber in Darjeeling ein!
In May 2018 we ran our second freight train adventure on the DHR: as usual we started at Siliguri with 5 freght cars... but lost 3 on the way this time: derailments, technical issues. At the end we made it with only 2 freight wagons to Darjeeling - but we made it!
Es gibt nur wenige Filme dieser Länge auf TH-cam die man von Anfang bis Ende schaut. Dieser ist so einer!! Briliante Arbeit!! Jede Szene fesselt, fasziniert und man verfolgt mit Spannung was hinter der nächsten Kurve kommt. Wenn man bedenkt was für ein Aufwand es heutzutage ist, auf dieser Strecke einen Dampfzug von ganz unten bis nach Darjeeling zu befördern. Man staunt immer wieder wie das in alten Zeiten jahrzehntelang täglich der Fall war.
Hoffentlich übersteht diese legendäre Bahn auch alle zukünftigen Schwierigkeiten, damit sie der Welt noch lange erhalten bleibt.
Früher war es wirklich besser, was den Zustand der Dampfloks betrifft. Aber die Herausforderungen sind immer noch die gleichen: enge Radien, Steigungen, unberechenbares Wetter.
Thanks for this lovely film. I traveled on the train in December 1986. I loved Darjeeling. Greetings from North Wales, UK.
We used to go to Darjeeling twice a year in the 60's and 70's on this train during the school holidays to visit friends who lived there. This is an excellent video. Have not been there since 1979. Many more people these days! Live in Kunming City Yunnan China now!
Wunderbares Video. Hier bekommt "Abenteuer Eisenbahn" eine ganz andere Bedeutung.
I rode this train from Darjeeling to Siliguri in August 1975 when I was working in India. It was an unforgettable experience. Thank you.
I've never rode by this train even though I live in Darjeeling district...I don't find it amusing or thrilling in any way tbh like many foreigners do...but that's just my feeling anyways
A wonderful video! Views, music, machinery in full full balance! Camerawork is excellent!
Absolutely amazing montage!
Thanks a ton for featuring the DHR of my hometown in the most comprehensive way ever on TH-cam.
Greetings from India.
The iron horse that keeps on working. Very nicely done report, much insight into the lifestyle of the people and their surroundings. Great cinematography, too.
Riveting video. Liked every minute of it. The music was excellent and the scenery magnificent too.
Wonderful ! Many thanks for this movie and best greetings from Poland !
Absolutely beautiful!
Thank you so much!
Thanks...From Kentucky USA...!
Absolutely beautiful. Supper was a simple bread omelette, a cup of tea, and my pipe, of course, enjoying this fabulous video. Thank you for sharing it.
Great journey - exactly as I remebered it 65 years ago! A beautifully put togther film.
splendid photography and beautiful soundtrack, well worth watching again and again.
This is my hometown The Queen of Hills -Darjeeling ... The Legendary DARJEELING HIMALAYAN RAILWAYS ...UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE .... DEVELOPED AND DESIGNED BY THE BRITISH DURING 1800..... MARVELLOUS PIECE OF ENGINEERING......MANY LEGENDARY FILMS HAVE BEEN SHOT IN THIS TRAIN
This is a masterpiece!!!
Who on earth could dislike this excellent video?
Thank you for a superb video. Beautifully filmed and excellent choice of locations. How lucky to get steam all the way. I did this railway back in 2008 but mainly behind diesel. I still cherish the journey even though the distant mountains were shrouded in cloud. Let's hope it survives after countless problems with landslips etc.
The story beautifully told; wish I was there. Lucky people in so many ways. Thank you and greetings from SW England.
I think i saw michael portillo breaking up coal.
Unbelievably beautiful, thank you for sharing.
Superb video. I did that journey many years ago and was allowed to actually travel in the engine cab. Naturally I had to pay the guys some 'thank you' rupees, but it was a journey I would never forget.
Glad to see the old steamers still working, much better than rusting away or forgotten in a shed somewhere. Sounds like they could use a tuneup, the exhaust beat is rather uneven. Really not making nearly as much smoke as they could be either, they're hard workers and pull a good draft when they do. Loving the stack talk as they climb the grade.
Uneven exhaust note is a timing adjustment. Depending on the style of gear, it should be a relatively easy fix. I’ve heard lots worse
Ideally they shouldn’t be making any smoke at all as that can clog the boiler tubes. It’s a sign of poor coal quality as the burn is incomplete and leaves a lot of particles in the exhaust.
I loved this- it made me smile, laugh , at times I felt tears, a whole package. The rhythms, the scenery, the human cameos... and above all that beautiful music!
What is the soundtrack??!!
Viele danken. The best film I’ve seen in ages.
I won’t get there now.. so this is a great substitute for the real thing. From Anglesey
Fantastico video. Dankon.
I remember traveling in this train with my parents in the eighties..not much as changed ..Humbling and life is simple in those mountains.
yes, some changes are very visible, other things have not changed at all.
Who needs space tourism when we have such a wonderful time travel tourism at our fingertips. Beautiful place with amazing cinematography.
...because "live" is always much more exciting than "just" seeing it on a screen!
certainly, but those who cannot, this video is still a joy to behold and I enjoyed every minute of it.
I also loved this video. I'd rather be here with this teaming life than in big cold big cities and skyscrapers
Bob, that´s true ... but we have to take it as it comes. We are currently planning another tour to India for February 2021 - let´s see how things develop!
Reminds me of the old poem we learnt at school about the train, I think I can, I know I can, I think I can, etc etc I also think it was on a record but absolutely beautiful everything, that's why we brits didn't want to let go but it wasn't ours it belonged to the Indians but at least we left the railways
great documentary .thanks to cameraman and entire team.
Great shots, thank you!
A very nice film! Thank you for sharing it with us!
What a tough life those people must have!
अंग्रेज वाकई बहुत बुद्धिमान था 👍
इस रेलगाड़ी को देखकर ही बहुत आनंद
महसूस हो रहा है .....
जब इसकी यात्रा करेंगे फिर तो कहना ही क्या ........😎
A charming railway, beautifully filmed
AMAZING!! Beautiful filmwork. Thank you for bringing me to a place I won't see in my lifetime.
Great documentary! How earnestly you have presented the sentiment on Steam Locos of Darjeeling Himalayan Railways. Hats off to you.
Hallo Jungs, das Video ist klasse geworden, werde es mir sicher noch öfter reinziehen! Eine schöne Erinnerung!! LG Peter
What a wonderful video to start my day with! Thanks so much - led me to Karunesh too, thank you for that as well. Excellent production - loved all the little extras (the men loading the coal, etc).
So wonderful I had to watch it again! Thanks so much...wish your other videos were longer *sigh.
Great video, thank you.
Wonderful photography!
Just found this fantastic video, thank you so much. You have captured the real image of running steam on the DHR and with freight too, not just the tourist image
This is a superb video story of this train, great views and angles and action throughout. Very interesting the whole way, a delight to see. and NOT swamped with stupid music, but gentle, in-character instrumentals very tastefully done. Thank you. What a charmer.
1000 likes for this video, how can someone dislike it, awesome video
50 dislikes,makes you wonder why some even bother breathing.
My favorite Hill Station the Beautiful Darjeeling, I traveled six years back and hope to be there in near future to joy again toy train . Thanks for such a nice vedio 🙏
Wonderful video, very lovingly shot. Thanks for sharing.
When the old locomotives, built by the British, could no longer be repaired, the railway thought about buying diesel electrics to entirely replace the steam locomotives. However, they decided that the steam locomotives were still needed at the higher elevations, so they contracted with a company in Switzerland to build new steam locomotives for them Those locomotives are now 30 or 40 years old and likely to keep running for another 100 years.
I would have the steam loco,s in this video were older than that, labour is cheap there for repairs and keeping them running.
Vielen Danken! Das war wunderbar!
I can't believe how close this train is to everything. Even a dog just leisurely crossed in front of it. And no one even blinked.
IS VERY VERY VERY GOOD VIDEO.RESPECT FROM GREECE
Sehr schönes Video, Danke und Daumen hoch.
Ich war mal einige Zeit dienstlich in Indien und ich glaub man muss selbst mal da gewesen sein, um das im Video gezeigte verstehen und fühlen zu können.
Ja, das stimmt. Indien ist wirklich sehr speziell.
Also... really nice production. Good work.
Love the sharp exhaust and the fact that they have some freight work!
Rob, the freight is paid by us... we organized a photo charter over the entire length of the line. Normally there is no freight at all.
@@tanagotv2640 Thanks for the info. Perhaps one day it will return.
@@tanagotv2640 Thanks for that
Bring back memories of goods train . Now it doesn't ply. It became a history . Present generation has never seen this goods train in Darjeeling Himalayan Railway .
Amazing,journey,in this beautiful world.
Lena Rozario beautiful trains
Better go see the eye doctor.
thangquocnguyenmdp I agree the only thing that is beautiful is the bootleg train
The beautiful garbage, shit and piss ridden world you mean? Indians in any of that countries villages, towns or cities, have no concept of managing their onw infrastructure that doesn't include wallowing in their own shit and refuse.
Wow great vid and wonderful scenery. How those little locos have the power to work those gradients is beyond me. Love the backing music as well.
That´s true, you sometimes wonder how only 2 axles can pull such a load!
Tremendo video. Una joya digna de ver. Saludos desde Chile.
Excellent video! Kudos.
Very beautiful train! I have also one video of the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway. Thank you for your video! Best Regards from Germany, Railherbie / Herbert (Kunde von Tanago)
"Iron Sherpa" loved it, amazed how they handle the switchbacks.
दिल को छू लेने वाली बात है यह विश्व धरोहर दार्जिलिंग ट्रेन है
Thanks for make this video
I live in siliguri town
Beautiful train & video
Beeindruckende Landschaft im Zusammenspiel mit der Lok und den Städten/Dörfern.
Excellent video and no constant background music to ruin anything.
Thank you Dr, Banner!
@@GatoVader My pleasure,thanks Lou :)
Amazing❤️ I m nostalgic... oh ! Darjeeling ..
'
love to hear beautifully steamed train with sound horn, steam piston, wheel on track
Beautiful video, went straight in my favourites list.
Also a lot of detail for my model railway featuring the DHR, in one shot even the underside of the freight cars can be seen!, which are currently on my work bench in model form.
Belíssimo vídeo. Parabéns aos autores deste excelente trabalho.

This is a real railroad. Not a corporation in Europe ...
Amazing journey along with amazing landscape
Wow, that's a great video. I will always cheer for you in Korea I'm looking forward to a great video. Have a nice day.
Definitely an adventure every trip
Excellent video my friend. Big like 👍 greetings from Vietnam ❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏
This is such a cool train trip
We, rich and poor alike, don't deserve this planet. We walk over trash, drop trash on the ground. No one says, "Hey, let's clean up our town and make it beautiful, a place we can be proud to show off."
I was thinking the same - the shot on the flat ground where the scooter comes from the right. All kinds of large colored trash - easy to pick up if someone cared!
Absolutely GORGEOUS! What a delightful railway,the people all look lovely.Very well shot indeed.Was this just for tourists or is this operational? Loco sounds a bit weird, is the timing a little of? How i would love to visit this.Thanks from Australia.
Welch ein Erlebnis!
Note; everywhere the engine went, a man was sitting on top with a hammer, breaking the large lumps of coal down to the size that could burn in the boiler.
@Quansem , and he still will not be supplied any safety glasses in case the hammer breaks to this day
@@PetesNikon ......peoples like to work in that way only......even if you give them free glasses....they will stop using it....
Ya I also work as this man and we arw called Second Fireman
Amazing...No words...👌👌💐
This is awesome!
I was just thinking that the track looked as if it could do with some maintenance when the video cut to footage of a derailment.
Wunderbar !!!! ======== Superb video !!!!
Great accompanying music, suiting the peace and grace of the steam loco and its abode..
Beautiful video
Amazing using great headphones.

Bescheidenheit ist schön, es ist einfach so.
A wonderful film of an extraordinary railway
hermosos recorridos.felicitaciones.aqui colombia.suerte.😅😆
Totally fascinating, the whole thing. So typical of India, but so unusual the adventure of getting up the mountain just one time... Bent rails and all. Must be like riding a bronco on some of those rails.
yes, it is a very rough ride on some parts!
If younger I would love to take this trip. It would be a memory of a lifetime.
Lynn, you are never too old for a trip of a lifetime!
@@tanagotv2640 In my twenties I went to Japan, later on visited Taiwan and in my sixties I made a trip to Thailand but now at 80 and with a heart issue I would never dare go anywhere far from a hospital. I will travel locally during my remaining years.
Best documentary about technology of DHR I have ever seen. But skip at Batasia loop unfortunately missing. Very nice Very nice.
Thank you for your positive comment!
Worlds one of the most beautiful places
DANKE HERZLICHE !!!!!!!!!
Magical view ..Love it
Very nice sphere impression !
So quaint and those two guys sitting on top of the engine are they breaking the coal? really??? that's really funny. Thanks for putting together this video...appreciate your efforts 👍
Fantastic !
Truly epic and wonderful
👌👌BEAUTIFUL VIDEO RECORDING
