A journey to the rooftop of the world. At the height of the British Raj in the late 19th century Franklin Prestage, Agent of the East Bengal Railway, proposed what many thought was impossible - a track running from the humid plains of Siliguri to the alphine heights of Darjeeling. Over a hundred years later the famous ''Toy Train'' is still running up to the Himalyas to the same destination, following the same ingenious loops and zigzags. Through threatened with closure on numerous occasions the line has now been granted 'World Heritage' status, thus guaranteeing it a secure future. But it is not just the steam train itself that provokes endless fascination. This program takes you on a journey like no other, in which two histories are forever in twined. A journey of mystery and romance whose ascent reveals an ever-changing landscape and people. A journey which ends in a place reminiscent of the mythical Shangrila.
