Welcome aboard one of India’s most unique heritage railway lines – the Matheran Light Railway (MLR) – as we journey from Neral to Matheran, a hill station nestled in the Western Ghats of Maharashtra. This video captures the entire ride through lush greenery, hairpin curves, sharp gradients, and colonial-era stations, offering a rare look into the workings of a narrow-gauge mountain railway still operational today. 🌿 About the Route: The Matheran Light Railway, established in 1907, is a 2-foot narrow gauge line covering a distance of approximately 21 km from Neral (elevation ~40 m) to Matheran (elevation ~800 m). The journey takes around 2 hours and winds through dense forests, deep valleys, and stunning mountain vistas. With no overhead wires and diesel locomotives hauling vintage coaches, this route is a dream for any rail enthusiast. 🚉 Halts Covered in the Video: NRLN/Neral Junction – The starting point of the journey, connects to the Mumbai–Pune mainline.
