Tea is the most popular beverage in the world after water. No exception in India as well. Indians love their cuppa. Tea is also a way of life in India. Tea coming from Darjeeling region, North India is recognized as one of the most exotic and finest tasting teas in the world. Darjeeling first flush emerges following winter & early spring is an extremely healthy & a flavourful tea loved by tea connoisseurs around the world. By the way, As The Statesman had reported, The Darjeeling Himalayan Railways’ ‘Steam Jungle Tea Safari’ which runs between Siliguri Junction and Rongtong station has gained much popularity, the Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR) has said. The NFR introduced the new service on the UNESCO World Heritage site, Darjeeling Himalayan Railway (DHR), with a steam-hauled Toy Train on 30 August, with a view to meeting the demand from tourists and promote the local tourism sector.

“The ‘Steam Jungle Tea Safari’ Toy Train service has been planned to run on a regular basis depending on demand. It is provided with the facilities of a  Vistadome coach and hauled by the heritage steam engine. The Toy Train travels through the scenic beauty of tea gardens, apart from the breathtaking views of the lower Himalayan hills

Tourists can enjoy the on-train services while making celebrations by riding through the unique ‘Steam Jungle Tea Safari.’ There are provisions of 14 passengers in the Vistadome coach.

I believe, tea lovers from all over the world would love to join this train journey to enjoy the beautiful scenery in Darjeeling valley, Ideally while sipping a nice cup of Darjeeling Tea.
