Not just a railway tour – a historic run. This recreates the Darjeeling Mail from the 1940’s! We are relying on information from Bangladeshi Railways which should result in passenger service being restored to the new border crossing between Chilhati (Bangladesh) and Haldibari (India) which should be in early 2020.
