CABIN RIDE in YDM4 Loco UNESCO World Heritage NILGIRI Mountain Railway

I managed to hitch hike a CABIN RIDE on the YDM 4 from Ooty to Ketti on the Ooty - Coonoor Section. This section uses the YDM 3A diesel to Link passenger services. It was a fabulous experience. Captured the full journey & here is a Video compilation. The Nilgiri Mountain Railway (NMR) is a 1,000 mm (3 ft 3 3⁄8 in) metre gauge railway in Tamil Nadu, India, built by the British in 1908.[1] The Railway is operated by the Southern Railway[2] and is the only rack railway in India. The railway relies on its fleet of steam locomotives.[3] NMR switched to diesel locomotives on the section between Coonoor and Udhagamandalam. Local people and visitors led a campaign to return to steam locomotives in this section.[3] In July 2005, UNESCO added the Nilgiri Mountain Railway as an extension to the World Heritage Site of Darjeeling Himalayan Railway. The site then became known as Mountain railways of India
