Cream Tea and Talk
Toy Train in the clouds (Darjeeling)
Presented by Paul Whittle

Paul has been a travel lecturer for all of this century, since retiring from his earlier career in banking. He has visited over 60 countries and he is the Vice-Chairman of the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway Society. He will regale us with the story of the railway, supported by his photos of the ‘Toy Train’ that continues to be important to the area to this day. Although diesel engines currently do much of the work, some steam engines from the nineteenth century still continue to ply the tracks.
