They overflowed on to the steamer, where other bright lights shone, with the result that our meal was attended with the greatest discomfort. Before I could get a mouthful of soup to my lips, a winged insect had fallen into the spoon, while to leave one's beverage uncovered was to find the surface black with struggling flies. We were almost afraid to take a deep breath, lest we swallowed some with the inhalation, and our topees presented the appearance of fly-papers before we landed at Sara Ghat.... There we aeain changed on to the Northern Bengal Railway.
The night journey was performed in comfort, except that Kitty woke me about midnight to know if we had reached Siliguri. We reached there at 6. Ii and partook of a big chota-haziri before starting on the Darjeeling - Himalayan system. The little "toy railway" is considered a masterpiece of engineering skill.
"The line, which is a two-foot gauge, is practically laid on the old cart-road, the gradient being about one in twenty-five. Its construction was commenced in 1879 and finished in 1881, the total length being fifty-one miles, and the cost three thousand pounds per mile, while the cart-road made by Government cost originally six thousand pounds per mile.
