kalka - shimla railway印象

If your journey started in Delhi then wrap up warm, the best seats in my opinion are on the right in the direction of travel. Rember you will be sitting on hard upright seats for some five hours. Anybody can be uncomfortable so plan ahead but keep hand baggage to a minimum. Loads of beautiful views so keep the camera handy. As the train makes stops it gives you the opportunity to stretch your legs, so for your trip take drinks, something warm and your camera.

我们坐了一个小时的火车,就是为了体验一下据说会穿过超过100个隧道的火车之行。隧道倒不是多刺激(一开始几个是很刺激的,但是后来就会觉得无聊了)。风景超棒。我觉得两个小时就足够体验并且欣赏这里的美景了。

The Kalka Shimla railway is a narrow meter guage train which runs through 99 tunnels. The sight seeing is awesome as the train passes thru the narrow tracks. The rectangular boggies and the wooden seats make it altogether an amazing experience. I would suggest all traveling to Shimla to experience this awesome journey rather than opting to go by road.

Unfortunately our journey was in the rain and mist, and it took an hour longer than it should have done. The seats were quite basic - vinyl upholstered benches - there's not a lot of room (and all seats were occupied) and some of the windows leaked. The toilet (in each carriage) is a hole in the floor and there's no heating - it was snowing by the time we got to Shimla. We were glad to arrive. Having said all that, which is quite negative, the line is an engineering marvel, the views from the train are stunning and it's an experience you shouldn't miss. Take some food and water with you. But be aware, it's not luxurious and comfortable travel (though there is the Shivalik Express service - once a day? - which I understand has more comfortable carriages and a meal is served). You could just take the train for part of the journey and arrange onward travel by other means.

为了等候德里高速班车,我们从加尔加到西姆拉的行程被延误了3个小时,最后是乘面包车去的。第二天,我们的旅行社为我们预定了一个在西姆拉的45分钟观光,使得这次旅行圆满了。如果你没有太多时间,可以考虑这样做。

The carriages are crowded and crammed with luggage, seats hard and the toilets on board very basic but the journey and views from the windows are fabulous.

I feel proud to say that i am a part of this historic journey. Kalka-shimla railway was built by Britisher's and has become a part of an era that is unique in its own sense. It has been accredited with the national heritage tag, and i would suggest everyone should travel on this route.

四年前,我乘坐过加尔加——西姆拉的玩具火车(但是是从西姆拉开往加尔加的),特别有趣,最后说服我丈夫再来坐一次。这次旅行真是太完美了,我们穿越在美丽的乡村,随着火车蜿蜒缓缓向山上攀爬,又顺势而下,我们看到了各种各样的动植物,期望能在火车穿越隧道和桥梁的时候拍到一些有趣的照片,真是太棒了!到小站停车时,还可以买到印度奶茶、零食等一些吃的。这次旅行真是又好玩又有趣!同样的路线回来时我们乘车,但是觉得乘车不值,强烈推荐往返都乘玩具火车,时间都差不多,但是乘火车你可以四处走动,更方便买到吃的喝的。

My wife and myself were recently in a party of 40 with Great Railway Journeys booked on the lunchtime Kalka to Shimla "Toy Train". It was a wonderful experience with terrific views as we climbed winding around the mountains to the Shimla station at 7000 feet. Although it took about 5 hours to complete the journey it was not boring or tiring there was always something to look at and, of course, the various stops at stations en-route to allow descending trains pass added to our interest. We must have been a privileged bunch as we enjoyed the luxury car with armchair seats which reminded us of the Pullman cars of the Orient Express. To our delight on arrival at Shimla we were rewarded with the pleasure and elegance of the Cecil Oberoi hotelfor a three night stay.
