I am too old and disabled to ever travel to India and ride on a beautiful train like that. For me, this was a five*****star video. Thank you to the set director, the designers and the artists who place us in these authentic and astonishly beautiful spaces. Movies are still magical. Thank you

I returned to my country India this summer to visit my parents after living in the US for 4 years. I had time on my side and wanted to make the best use of it by traveling and surprisingly I made a one week trip through Rajasthan (where this movie has been shot) on train all by myself and when I watched the trailer I was like "Man, this is some kind of a connection". I had no idea about this movie before I took the journey by train in Rajasthan. It was a spiritual one. It was about rediscovering my country and myself. Sorry, If i'm getting a bit too over the board on this, but that's what such experiences do :) You meet beautiful people from around the world who are traveling and trying to discover themselves and then you become a part of their life and they become a part of yours !!!!!!!

THE PLATES WERE HAND PAINTED..WOW..AND I DONT EVEN THINK THE AUDIENCE SEES THINGS LIKE THAT WHEN THEY'RE WATCHING IT..PEOPLE SPENT SO MUCH TIME ON LITTLE DETAILS WITH THE TRAIN AND IT NEVER WOULD'VE CROSSED MY MIND HOW MUCH WORK GOT PUT INTO IT..AFTER FINISHING THE TRAIN, IF I WERE WES OR ONE OF THE ACTORS , I'D LOVE TO JUST SIT IN THAT TRAIN WITH NO ONE AROUND , SMOKE A JOINT AND SPEND SOME REAL TIME IN THE DARJEELING AS IT RIDES...I REALLY HOPE THEY DID...
I JUST SAW THE MOVIE LAST NIGHT..I'M COMPLETELY MINDFUCKED AS TO WHY IT DIDNT GET RELEASED EVERYWHERE IN 1 SHOT.ALTHOUGHT AFTER SEEING THE MOVIE, I THINK I GOT AN ANSWER...STILL IT FEELS EXCLUSIVE A BIT. I'M IN MONTREAL I SHOULD MENTION..
A TRUELY REALISTIC MOVIE, THE COLOURS STAYED IN MY HEAD,THE ACTORS GREW ON ME. I WILL WATCH IT AGAIN CAUSE IT HAS TO BE WATCHED ON A BIG SCREEN IT WONT BE THE SAME ON MY TELE OR LAPTOP..A GREAT FKN FILM...THANK YOU..

ALEXANDER....

Being a rail fan, I have enjoyed 3 trips to India, travelling from Delhi to Lucknow and Kanpur. Yes, Darjeeling is a hill area, producers of their famous tea, and served by a railway alright, but it is a 2 foot gauge steam "toy train" unable to venture onto India's other tracks. Never mind. We eagerly await the movie in this Tennessee country town. Al Rogers, Pleasant Hill

We saw the movie this evening, it was absolutely beautiful and magical, unique, and an instant classic. I am so happy and surprised to find the website with these great tours, thank you! I was looking specifically for pictures of tigers I saw on the train as well as all the other beautiful images painted on train. What a fantastic story and film, and what a joy to see the beauty the Indian artisans poured into the making of the train also.

That tour was awesome. I had no idea that they had filmed the entire thing while the train was moving. Genius. I appreciate the great insight from the previous comments. Wes Anderson is the man...has anyone seen the movie yet? thoughts?

Everything about the tour inside the Darjeeling train was great. But.... the production designer Mark Friedberg at around 1:48 of the video talks about the portraits in the bar. ha ha ha....

What can I say ?... Those were not maharajas but the Indian Politician during and post independance, so they are like the founding fathers of America.

Secondly naming the train Darjeeling and having Rajasthani artwork all over it is also contradictory since Rajasthan is in the far North-West of India and Darjeeling which is a hill-station within Bengal (capital of Bengal is Kolkata or Culcutta) which is in the Eastern part of India.

Anyways, I wish they had done some research rather than just picture the romantic view of India which is in all we get in Hollywood movies.

in a particular frame a poster is pointed to and the guy says its posters of maharaja. Thats untrue. The poster was of faces of patriotic leaders of the pre-independence days. in other words the original politicians of india.

That was a great tour, Thanks! South Florida, US, 5 more days (to 10/19/07) until we get to see this movie. Yippee!!!

One of my dreams for more than 30 years was to ride the trains in India. I had my chance a year ago. Too bad we don't have trains in US that are affordable, take us to many locations and are easy to ride on. My friend and I went on one 13 hour ride for $12, that's $6 a person. We went at night and slept quite comfortably. And that was the most expensive trip we took. No wonder that was one of my dreams for 30 years. It was indescribable.

Too bad we don't have trains in the US that are worth photographing
