Patalpani Heritage Train
If you are a train and a nature enthusiast you must take the Patalpani Heritage train which leaves from Dr. Ambedkar Nagar (Mhow) at around 11am and takes you to the Patalpani waterfalls and then to Kalakund where you can spend good time having lunch at railway canteen serving delicious local cuisine and on the banks of the Choral river.
The Struggle: The problematic part is getting the tickets to the train as there is no online booking option and the booking counters open only 3 hrs in advance and apparently a queue starts at mid-night. The train has 6 coaches. 4 of them G1 to G4 are general coaches with no assigned seats and wooden benches. There are two reserved chair cars with assigned seats C1 and C2.
In case you are unable to get the tickets on the counter talk to the Chief Ticket inspector and they should be able to help out.
Pit Stops:
Patalpani Waterfalls:
Patalpani Bridge:
Kalakund Heritage Station: This is the last stop before where we will have lunch before heading back to Mhow. The train stops here for around 2 hours. If you had ordered your lunch you can savour the local cuisines from the railway canteen. Alternatively, you could also buy some food from the local villagers or have your own lunch.
There is small railway museum (Interpretation Center) which has a number of vintage artifacts from the railways on display.
From the station you could descend to the river bed of the Choral river and drench your feet. Depending on the season the water levels may be quite different. Also exercise caution as the water levels in the falls and rivers can change at a very short notice (few minutes).
