India - Darjeeling Railway 2006. Part 5 - Over the Summit to Darjeeling
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 มี.ค. 2018
- Taken from 12 year old tapes. Please excuse any quality issues.
This is a look back at the fifth part of my second visit to this fascinating narrow gauge line. In 1881, the line was completed from Jalpaiguri and Siliguri junction, on the broad gauge main line, all the way up into the Himalayan foothills to the summer camp of Darjeeling. In its 55 mile length, the line rises from 100 metres above sea level to around 2300 metres above sea level. The 2ft gauge 0-4-0 saddle tanks are surprisingly powerful and make a very distinctive sound as they blast their way up the mountain sides.
This fifth part features the final climb to the highest point at Ghum, the highest station in India, and then slightly downhill to the destination at Darjeeling. The main square in Darjeeling is a treat and so typical of India. There are dogs "chatting" to each other, vehicles of all types pushing in all directions and a Traffic Police "control" box stationed exactly on the railway line, meaning it has to be physically moved every time a train passes by. Why it isn't permanently located just a few feet from its usual position is a mystery only an Indian could explain. Also, the purpose of the traffic police, anyway, is a mystery in itself. Their main purpose seems to stand in the middle of the road waving a red and a green flag. It's expected, I assume, that everyone knows which colour refers to them !

@ 2:21 you can almost hear the loco going "whew". thanks for sharing your 20 year old tapes with us .
what memories
They certainly have to work hard and the design is 131 years old, although the newest of the B Class tanks are a mere 95 years old!! I'm glad you enjoyed, Allan ....... Andy
A lot of thanks for video
That is my pleasure. Thanks for your comment .... Andy
Thanks for this interesting video. Greetings from Brazil...
Thank you for your comment, Nilson. Please look at some of my other videos!

Great work.God bless.
Thank you .... Andy
Old days remember, nice
You can still see steam working on this line some days ....... Andy
I like it 👋👋👋👋👋
I'm pleased you enjoyed. Take a look at some others of my videos. You might like them too!! ..... Andy
Wonderful
I agree. It's a remarkable railway line ..... Andy
Lots of lovely black smoke very good for the environment lovely little engine and lovely sound good old steam engine s
Sadly, steam locos are bad polluters but getting rid of a handful of steam locos wouldn't do a thing to improve our atmosphere. You may not agree with me but I feel we urgently need to get rid of pollution from the billions of road vehicles and the aircraft and diesel ships that are criss-crossing our world ...... Andy
amazing
It's certainly a remarkable railway ..... Andy
its a heritage
I agree with both your comments. I think it's for the Indian authorities to do something about it though. The line urgently needs help. Andy
Nice journney
It's a unique 50 mile trip up the steep winding climb into the Himalayan foothills .... Andy
This beautiful train is left only a few places. It is a great pleasure to see these trains. Along with this, there is a dire need to make this engine friendly to the environment. Provided that the intention of the Railway Department should be. While running the train, two human beings stand on the engine, it should be removed by looking at the railway engineer. So the beauty of its train will increase further.
These locomotives are a remarkable piece of India's heritage and must be saved. Steam locomotives are bad polluters but getting rid of these last few locos will make no difference to the environment. India needs to clean up its millions of road vehicles to make any difference. ...... The guys on the front of the train are there mainly to ensure safety on the many road crossings and also to sand the rails when needed ...... Andy
very Lovly train. very happy
I agree. It's a remarkable railway line .... Andy
I like the train so much..
And me too! ..... Andy
So Beautiful, very nice. My next Holiday trip is to Darjeeling, in'sha Allah.
It's a beautiful location ..... Andy

This video was posted 2018. One hundred years before, my great grandfather George Yule Saunders died. His death certificate says he was a 'Driver, D&H Ry'. I like to think he must have driven this very engine, certainly the same route.
It sounds to me that you need to be planning a trip to northern India just as soon as we're allowed to travel again! ..... Andy
@@AndyDandanFisherSteam you can buy a book about these engines. only one of them has returned to England but thats because she was brought by a American railway enthusiast a good few years before they became national treasures of India
@@eliotreader8220 - They're great little locos. You can also buy working steam models of the B Class here in the UK ..... Andy
Nice video. Now days these steam loco comes uptil gum as tourist train regular service is run by diesel engine loco...... sad to see that......
Yes. I know. The railway is struggling to make enough money to keep the steam locos working. We must keep the railway alive as long as we can !
Now Darjeeling has undergone a sea change.
What is the latest situation? Andy
GENERALLY NERROW GAUGE TRACKS ARE BEST MAINTAINED TRACKS. I HAVE TESTED THEM AT THE MAXIMUM SPEED OF 50 KMPH ALSO WITHOUT GETTING ANY ROUGH RIDING OR LURCHED. HERE IT APPEARS THAT THERE IS A SLACKNESS IN THE MAINTENANCE WHICH MAY ENDANGER SAFETY OF TRAINS.
The railway lacks support from the local authorities. The line brings in much tourist money and should be supported with more investment ..... Andy
Once again an impressive video. What is the guy in the white shirt on the front of the locomotive? I bet the shirt is still clean in the evening. May he be a Hindi good luck charm?
This train was a special charter for our group. He's one of the railways managers who's just there to make sure everything goes right for us! At least he's in front of the chimney and all the black smoke! Andy
Thanks for the friendly response.
Good
Just a note, last clip is Kurseong not Darjeeling
Oh. Thanks for that. The memory fails after 12 years I'm afraid. Andy

These little things look great. Would love to see N gauge models of them.
Or OO models. Not sure I've ever seen any model of a B-Class.
I'v seen a H0f model of them on youtube but it was probably someone's hand built modell
Probably. Not aware of a commercially produced model. Andy

This railway certainly is unique. There's nothing else quite like it in the world and, for the sake of India's heritage, it really must be saved ..... Andy

Wooden sleepers may be replaced by concrete sleepers.the train bogies are very shaking while on way
This all adds to the historical beauty of the line ..... Andy
At 15.32 the town is Kurseong not Darjeeling as your caption on the right corner states.I lived there.
My sincere apologies, Roger. The video was edited a few years after I recorded the scenes and my memory has obviously failed me! Thank you for pointing that out. Unfortunately, I can do nothing to change the caption now so it'll have to stay incorrect!! ..... Andy

Please read my comment to Dharvendra. This line is a valuable piece of history and brings much money into the area. Destroying this railway or its steam locos would do nothing for the environment but would be a crime against historical heritage. The pollution from the many millions of road vehicles urgently needs to be sorted out .... that would make a huge difference to our environment.

We should maintain this heritage keeping environment in mind.... should replace with bio- diesel engine
The pollution from these steam museum pieces is tiny compared to the billions of road vehicles in use. The steam locos must be preserved as a valuable piece of history. We must do something about the roads in order to save our planet.

Colocar areia nos trilhos.
Why men are standing in front of engine .who are they
They stand there for safety reasons - to make sure that the road ahead is clear and there are no obstructions. They also put sand on to the tracks when it's needed to stop the wheels slipping ........ Andy

Yate ramro thauma yo pollution
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. 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?

It's such a shame for indians. That the train run by Britishers is still running.
You are right
Also, it's too much smoke, it destroys the environment, as well as, it brings diseases to people
You should be proud of your heritage - no matter who it was built by. In the UK we have forts built by the Romans, castles and cathedrals built by the Normans and burial mounds built by the Celts. We're proud of this history. The Darjeeling Railway brings in huge amounts of money from tourists. You should look after this piece of history.
