Darjeeling Himalayan Railway Steam Freight Part 2: POV Street Running from Kurseong to Darjeeling

We continue on our DHR steam freight adventure with B-Class locomotive No. 802 'Whistle Queen', this time from Kurseong to Darjeeling. We start by passing some of the stately homes uphill from Kurseong, built in the distinct foothills style, and then hop onboard the train at Sonada for a POV street running experience from there into Darjeeling to dodge the heavy traffic during peak domestic tourist season. Near misses, some water stops and other points of interest are here for the taking as we navigate the increasingly tight and crowded streets of the Himalayan foothill towns from Jorebungalow, Ghum, over the Batasia Loop and finally down into Darjeeling. 0:00 Main Title / Bridge 305 0:24 Homes uphill from Kurseong 0:56 Tung 1:34 POV Street Running Begins from Sonada 3:04 Asphalt Work Crew 4:05 Massive Traffic Jam Approaching Jorebungalow 4:53 Water Halt at Jorebungalow 5:26 Steet Running to Ghum 6:30 Close Call with a Water Truck! 7:30 Tight Street Running 9:09 Downhill from Ghum to Darjeeling 10:44 Batasia Loop 11:59 Dali Monastery 13:00 Water Halt at West Point, Darjeeling 13:50 Darjeeling Terminus 14:19 Cab-First Running Towards Kurseong 14:49 A Few Shots of the Daily Up Service Train from Siliguri (with additional car added at Kurseong I believe) 15:20 Parting shot of B-Class O1 Pulling Joy Train towards Darjeeling If you would like to see a full photo set, please visit my website at https://gallery.mikemassee.com/-/gall...
