Fascination at every station
How do you move the world's second-largest populace around its
seventh-largest landmass? Lay down 60,000km (over 37,000 mi) of
track. India's sprawling rail system is the connective tissue that
holds this land together, opening up its distant cities and remote
corners to curious travellers eager to soak it all in. India by rail is an
experience in itself; the busy trains of the urban centres put the
bustle of daily life right in your face, while the toy trains of the
Himalaya region wind their way through some of the most
breathtaking scenery you'll ever see. Hop aboard and be
profoundly moved by a nation moved by rail.
