Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 січ 2019
- The 'Z' reverse, a unique practice in DHR, in which the train goes forward, changes line, reverses and moves forward in a 'Z' format in order to gain altitude in difficult terrain of the Himalayan foothill. This series of 'Z' reverse on the New Jalpaiguri - Darjeeling line are found near Tindharia, West Bengal.
Have been visiting darjeeling 15-20 times since 1972. saw this unique feature today for the first time.thank u.

This technique came in the mind of Herbert Rumsay a civil engineer who was responsible to take care of the functioning of the Darjeeling Himalayan Railways . Initially Herbert Rumsay had failed to find a solution to how the locomotive would be able to overcome such a very steep gradient ascend . However one day he was in a a ballroom dance with his wife and during this Ballroom dance when his wife suggested “ Darling if you can’t go forward,why don’t you come back just like that in a ball dance “. Therefore this incident inspired the zig zag reversing method

Wonderful rail heritage from India greetings from jakarta indonesia
Very interesting rail ride in India.
Switchbacks were common on US logging railroads from many years and there were a few on secondary lines too. A few still exist today. This is sure a unique and photogenic location. One has to love the grade. In the US there is even a crime train Movie called Switchback. It's pretty good!
👍👍
Amazing , I'm a railfan from Kolkata but I've never learnt about this ! Great video !

@@lalchandsekh5948 Hi
The train reversal is brilliant! As is the history and train design. BUT. The crazy intersection with a busy road - without a gate or official notice that a train would be *backing up* across it - is terrifying. I would not want to be in either of the far ends of this train!!
Never thought a train would go in a zig zag
Excellent idea 👍
Thanks for sharing these beautiful videos 👏
Watch Ecuador's train that goes through the Devil's Nose ( Mountains).

Thats one way to get a train climb high , trains cant climb steep hills ..
बहुत ही शानदार सिन है जिन्दगी मै पहली बार इस तरह का विडियों देखा है पर एक आवश्यक सुचना है जब ट्रेन पिछे आती है तब उस रोड पर कोई भी रेल्वे फाटक नहीं है किसी दिन बहुत बढी घटना हो सकती है इस लिये रेल्वे प्रशासन इस ओर ध्यान दे धन्यवाद
🚩 वन्देमातरम जय श्री राम 🚩
वहां पूरे सैक्सन में कोई भी सिग्नल फाटक नहीं है लेकिन जब ट्रेन आती हैं तो सभी लोग खुद ही रूक जाते हैं और एक कर्मचारी खड़ा हो जाता है सड़क पर। मैं एक बार गया था वहां ट्रेन बहुत ही धीरे चलती है
Oh wonderful これを見たら私が住んでいた日本熊本の豊肥本線の立野と赤水を思い出します！
I've been this place in the year 2017. Lovely place with lots of good memories full with beautiful people over there♥️♥️♥️♥️

This is one of the very few rail videos with a “Surround Sound” quality audio in it!!👍👍..... It’s as if I am truly standing in that location and hearing all the typical train and the noise of the road traffic in a perceptive manner👍

This is the "Z" reversal in Darjeeling railway at a place called Rangtong. Many of you would have enjoyed this jolly ride in this train. But I don't know how many of you have noticed this difficult turn. In 1880, the concerned engineer laying the track, could not find enough space for the track to climb up. It was impossible to take the track forward along the hills. He was stuck. His wife gave an idea. Engineer's wife: Darling, why are you so much worried about this piece of paper? Engineer: I am not able to find a solution for this Engineering problem. Wife: What problem? tell me. Engineer: After constructing up to this stretch, not able to proceed forward. Wife: So what? Engineer: No place to go forward, very steep terrain. Wife: If you are not able to proceed forward, don't worry. Go backward. Engineer: what? Wife: Go reverse! The engineer got the solution and finalized his design. He had mentioned this instant in his diary. Moral: Never turn deaf to your wife's advice!.
That's priceless!
lmao that's quite a story
👍👍👍
Fascinating! I hope that one day I will be able to travel on the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway.

A wonderful engineering from the British.
Hats off to them.
Mountain railways have two unique features to address sudden change in altitude- loops and zigzags. This is a very good video which explains what is a zig zag in Himalayan railway. The other two features of such railways are tunnels and bridges.
And spirals, e.g. Festiniog Railway.
Thanks for sharing this inside information on mountain railways--I will be sharing this!

Not some random guy. He was the points-man, in-charge of seeing off the train through the "Z" reverse process.

"Kasto Mazza" song in Darjeeling Toy Train.. The composition of the song is beautifully matched by the dream like vintage toy train in every frame and angle. So much so, that we filmed our own version aboard the same train that was boarded by Saif Ali Khan & Vidya Balan. Another dream fulfilled with use of just a mobile phone and lots of enthusiasm 😉

Great British ingenuity! Narrow Gauge. Good job India for keeping it up

What a beautiful moment
Simple logic. Great achievement!
We have that in Peru too - to go from the capital, Lima, to Cerro de Pasco, in the Andes Range highlands, (almost 5,000 m.a.s.l. there are good zig-zags as we call them I used to work in Casaracra Ranch near la Oroya and watched the zig-zag mornings and evenings.
Really a great idea. Hats off
