I am also glad he posted it - my wife and have done the full trip to Darjeeling and it is a great experience. I just hope they do fix the gaps in the track so it can go the full distance again. We were only able to do half a trip down on the Ooty train because a landslide months earlier had closed the lower part of the track - what we did was also a great experience but we were a bit disappointed the train could only do half a trip down.
