First train connecting Rangpo & Kolkata. Can be introduced after completion of Sevok(west bengal)- Rangpo(sikkim) project. The broad gauge track finally may be 45 km long, 1 km of which will be in Sikkim state and the rest in West Bengal state. 32 km of the track will be in tunnels with almost equal number of bridges on deep gorges and valleys with proposed 65 km per hour speed limit. New railway stations will be constructed at Melli, Tista Bazar, Geilkhola, Riang and Rangpo. The track will be constructed through the foothills of Kanchanjungha mountain range and Teesta river valley and will offer very beautiful views. Train is routed via under construction Murshidabad-Azimganj line & New Jalpaiguri is bypassed routing via Aluabari-Thakurganj-Bagdogra which is already converted to broad gauge. People visiting Darjeeling, Jalpaiguri, Sikkim gould be greatly helpful. Kindly rate this train. Suggestions & feedbacks are welcomed. Return /train/39652. Thank...
