A compilation of select footage from an exhilarating journey by the Barak Valley Exp. from Lumding to Badarpur. For nearly 11 hours, me and my companions were in paradise, as the train cut through the Barail range and played hide-n-seek with the Jatinga river. Metre Gauge trips don't get better than this!! Quick navigation links:
- Double-headed freights at 6:11, 12:27, 15:42, 21:00
- Train crossings at 0:43, 3:02
- Bridges at 1:10, 4:51, 7:43, 9:41, 17:58, 18:09, 18:33, 19:19, 20:07
- Loco chugging at 1:37, 2:42, 3:53, 4:52, 21:35
Part 1 covers the ride till Harangajao. Part 2 can be seen here - • [Metre Gauge] A Specta... .

Beautiful scenery, fascinating to view various aspects of the journey. Amazing how people ride on top of the coaches through tunnels breathing the diesel fumes. Great viaduct builders. I wonder how many workers lost their lives in construction. Most enjoyable. Thank you

I.m from Sri Lanka. We had narrow gauge railways before, unfortunately and shamelessly we lost all of them. We have done nothing to upgrade our excisting railway. You can be proud about what your have done
@ManiVijay
@ManiVijay 7 лет назад
Thanks! But we, too, have systematically destroyed our metre gauge railways, all in the name of progress. In reality, it was about siphoning off money to private accounts :-(

This line was a real jewel. I do not get tired of watching your beautiful video of the Barak Valley in North East India. Unfortunately, its most spectacular part could not be classified as World Heritage. We will see for a long time these legendary YDM 4 and their passenger cars Jessop which circulated on this line because elsewhere the section Mhow - Omkareshwar has been preserved. These so characteristic trains of the meter gauge are part of the charm of the trip. Unfortunately what is sad is that we will not see them again in this fabulous landscape of the Barak Valley. I live at 7880 km from this line . All your magnificent videos make me make very nice trips and thank you very much. When a line disappears these videos keep it in memory. She still amazes us.

I totally agree with you. It's sad that they did not give this section enough importance to classify it as a World Heritage line. Now it's all gone and we can only relive it through videos.
