UNESCO World Heritage site Kalka-Shimla railway line affected by heavy rain and floods

The relentless rain and flood situation in Himachal Pradesh has caused tremendous loss of life and property, the most recent one being the historic 94-km Kalka-Shimla railway line. The railway line is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

A part of the iconic railway line, located between Summer Hill and Jutogh stations got washed away in a massive landslide. A stretch of the railway track, suspended in the air, is what’s left now. The Kalka-Shimla railway line was opened to the public in 1903!
