Watching this video makes me both happy and sad. It's nice to see the B class running, but sadly it's in the wrong place. The Darjeeling B class is not suited to the tight curves of the Matheran line unlike the C class locos that were specially designed for it. Moreover, the beauty of the B class has been destroyed by thoughtless decoration with all kinds of unnecessary brass fittings and a garish paint scheme. 794 is hardly used at Matheran now. It should be transported back home to Darjeeling.
@ 3:28 a line can be seen going upwards
