This winter, enjoy a night ride aboard Darjeeling toy train!

And now this November, as part of the festivities, the DHR has announced that the Darjeeling toy train will continue to run post-sundown through the same route for the first time in history. It’s expected that the special evening train will boost the upcoming celebrations as well as the heritage train among tourists.
Dates and timings of the Darjeeling night train services
If reports are to go by, the Darjeeling toy train will run in the evenings every Saturday and Sunday from 12 November 2022 to 4 December 2022. These are also the dates when the Ghoom Festival will be celebrated, and while the festivities will run throughout the week, one can expect big crowds and more events on weekends.
