Matheran Toy Train

Matheran Toy Train is one of India's most beloved heritage railways — a charming UNESCO-listed narrow-gauge mountain train connecting Neral to Matheran across 21 km, climbing through lush Sahyadri forest over 221 curves at a gentle, unhurried pace. The only motorised transport permitted into Matheran. A top Matheran sightseeing and railway heritage experience. Book tickets in advance at Neral station; multiple daily departures. The open-air carriage in the monsoon, with waterfalls visible from the window, is extraordinary.
