Journey down the mountains from Coonoor to Mettupalayam on the Nilgiri Mountain Railway, Southern India - now a UNESCO World Heritage Site from 2005. 
My video depicts a Swiss built steam engine # 37392-X hauling the train from Ootacamund as it enters the steep rack section of the track just after passing Coonoor level crossing. The train is en route down the hills to Mettupalayam on Nov. 24, 2007.
