Nilgiri Mountain Railway

Journey on the Nilgiri Mountain Railway train from Coonoor to Ooty. Being in the front is a vantage position to get a 'driver's view'. It's pretty challenging to be at the front on a moving train without a windshield, in the cold Nilgirils.

Leaving Coonoor, the major mid way station in the Mettupalayam to Ooty Nilgiri Mountain Rail line.
