Kangra
Valley Railway
The exotic Kangra Valley lying between the Dhaula
Dhar and the Shivalik foothills in the state of Himachal
Pradesh is the conglomeration of valleys and plateaus of
the Himalayas. Renowned for its natural beauty, the
valley attracts thousands of tourists every year.
The Kangra Queen runs between Pathankot and Palampur and
takes 4 hrs & 25 minutes with two stoppages at
Jwalamukhi and Kangra. There are many other local trains
on the same route with more stoppages.
Kangra Valley Railways is a reminder that despite
difficult terrain, railway engineers can create a work
which exists in harmony with the natural beauty of the
locale. In April 1929, the
100 mile line constructed in rough terrain and hostile
weather was opened for traffic. There are 20 crossings
stations, 7 passenger halts and 971 bridges on this
line.
Starting from Pathankot, the line runs parallel to the
road for the first 16 miles. Ahuj, at 1210 metres is the
highest point. From Mangwal to Kangra, travellers have
the privilege of being exposed to a memorable view of
the grandeur of the majestic Himalayas. As Palampur
reaches, the snow capped peaks cast a mesmerising spell
on the passengers. From there, the line runs parallel to
the Dhaula Dhar range. Near Baijnath the train makes its
way through the gorgeous pines. The line does not pass
through the Kangra town as it is separated from it by a
big cleft in the hill.
