Devoid of any action, the remote branch line to Bhalukpong lies quiet and calm under the watchful eyes of the Sa-Nga-Phu, "Abode of the Guardian Deity" or the Gorichen group (6530m highest), Meerathang Glacier & other unnamed peaks from the Greater Himalayas.
The line witnesses only one to and fro service everyday except Sunday & Thursday.

Off to the Himalayas !
Calm & quiet surroundings, occasional chirping of small passerines & the only sound to break the silence momentarily is the distant chugging of an alco combined with the rattle of the trailing coaches.
out behind the clouds are the silent witnesses (L to R), Mount Kangto (7090 m) & the sacred Mount Khyari Satam a.k.a Mount Chiumo (6890 m) from the Eastern belt of Greater Himalayas or Himadris.
Train in frame, 05819 Dekargaon - Bhalukpong Passenger powered by New Guwahati (NGC) WDM 3A # 16578R.
