Ooty toy train full journey || Mettupalayam to Coonoor (Part 1) || Amazing Nilgiri Mountain Railway!

Thank you for 1000 subscribers! ❤️
An amazing ride on the restarted service post second wave covid lockdown. This part covers the 27 km section from Mettupalayam (MTP) to Coonoor (ONR) station, the midway and the major town enroute Ooty (UAM). The ride upto ONR is powered by the X-class steam locomotives. This is the only route wherein steam locomotives are regularly used! Although the darjeeling railway also uses steam locos, it's mostly for joy rides for short distances. The steam locomotives give NMR a distinct charm, taking scores of passengers to Coonoor and Udhagamandalam, crossing 45.8 kilometres (28 mi), 108 curves, 16 tunnels and 250 bridges.
Fare 2nd Sitting (2S): Rs 295
First Class (FC): Rs 600

Thank you Sir for this beautiful video, splendidly capturing the beauty of the hills, and the thrill of this enjoyable journey.Felt like I was on the train.

[@ramakrishnansundaram1910]

Kallar Railway Station is the Last Border of Coimbatore District, Infact Coimbatore District will be only district in future to have both Broad & Meter Gauge, We should get Complete Glass Vistadome Coaches sooner for both Mettupalayam To Udagamandalam & Coonoor To Udagamandalam

[@Krishnantech]

Enjoyed your videos covering both MTP-ONR and ONR-UAM sections of Nilgiri Railway. Reminded me of my several trips on the line from my childhood, when there was no YDM-4 power, and only Swiss-built coal-fired X-Class steam engines were in use.

[@GKKrishna]

Ah the good old days! Glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching 😀

[@jayarajjohnson2476]

JUST TOTALLY LOVE THE NILGIRIS RAILWAYS...ESPECIALLY THE OLD ENGINES & OLD CARRIAGES... THE MODERN CARRIAGES SPOIL THE EXPERIENCE...IF THE RAILWAYS DO NOT PLAN TO USE THE OLD CARRIAGES ON THE LINE IN THE FUTURE, THEY CAN AT LEAST MAKE THEM INTO RESTAURANTS ON THE TRACKS AT OOTY & COONOOR RAILWAY STATIONS...THIS INCOME CAN ALSO BE USED FOR THE UPKEEP OF THE OLD ENGINES AND THE NILGIRIS RAILWAY SYSTEM AS A WHOLE...

Don't call them "#TOY_TRAIN" they are classified as "#Mountain_Railways_Of_India" by #UNESCO Neelam+Giri both are Sanskrit In Tamil Blue=Udha that is why it is called Udhagamandalam. #Ootacamund is #Toda language #Nilgiri_Mountain_Railway is #Meter_Gauge not #Narrow_Gauge. The #broad_Gauge train in #Mettupalayam is one of oldest mail/express called #Blue_Mountain now #Nilagiri_Express stated in 1899. Toy train are those which are operated in Parks, zoos, & play zones for children

Thanks 😃

[@rajanvarghese2352]

In the trip covered, the locomotive is behind the train pushing it up. Why is the normal pulling not done here. Is this because of climbing gradients? The rack railway starts at Kallar and where does it end? Everyone is happy to see your excellent video skills. Keep up your show, bro. 🤩💖🤝

[@GKKrishna]

The train is pushed in order to avoid pressure to the couplers. The rack rails start at kallar and end at coonoor. Thanks for your views 😀

[@rajanvarghese2352]

@@GKKrishna I think there should be a revamp of the carriages, that have strong couplers. Safety is paramount, especially when tourism is the case. New Design, and washroom cubicles also need to be provided. We should develop new ideas, and make it easier and safer for everyone involved.

I travelled in first class (FC). The windows are bit wider and the left side towards ooty offers best views! Thanks for watching 🙂

[@harishbs06]

Thanks, can you also suggest which route has the best experience including the scenic beauty, steam engine or diesel locomotive? Mettupalayam to Coonoor or Coonoor to Ooty? Or any other routes between Mettupalayam and Ooty. Thanks!!

[@GKKrishna]

Mettupalayam to coonoor is best for scenic beauty. Both the steam locomotive and diesel locomotive have a charm of their own... You can experience both in a journey upto Ooty from Mettupalayam!
