The Konkan Railway route in India is one of the most scenic in the world. The entire route passes through wonderful terrain over mountains, across rivers and through some of best rain fed forests of India.  The entire stretch of about 740 kms is full over marvelous bridges and tunnels, some of them amazing engineering marvels individually.  There are a total of about 2000 bridges and 91 tunnels in this route.

The Nilgiri Mountain Railways : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nil... is a a UNESCO World-Heritage-Site. To quote from wikipedia :

The 'Nilagiri Passenger' train covers a distance of 26 mi (41.8 km),[2] travels through 208 curves, 16 tunnels,[2] and 250 bridges.[2] The uphill journey takes around 290 minutes (4.8 hours), and the  downhill journey takes 215 minutes (3.6 hours) It has the steepest track  in Asia with a maxmum gradient of 8.33%.[2]

Its one of my earliest memories of train travel, making the journey from the Wellington or Conoor station to Ooty (the final stop and highest point of the track). Everything along the route from the stations, houses, farms, valley views are either quaint or breathtaking. It left a deep-enough memory in my mind to return and make the same trip tens of times over again :)

Oh and it was also the "location" for the shooting of the famous bollywood song/dance number :

尼吉里铁路是联合国教科文组织世界遗产全长26英里(41.8公里),过208个弯道、16条隧道、250座桥,上山约290分钟(4.8小时),下山约215分钟(3.6小时),是亚洲最陡的道,最大坡度为8.33%

这是我最早的火车旅行之一,从车站、房屋、农场到山谷,沿途的一切要么古色古香,要么令人叹为观止。它在我的脑海里留下了足够深刻的记忆,流连忘返。这里也是宝莱坞著名歌舞片的拍摄地
