Mumbai railfans Arzan Kotval, Deep Soni and Sriram did a 10km walk to explore the newly started 3km Aman Lodge - Matheran Narrow guage line. Earlier you had to take a motor car ride from Neral, get down at Aman Lodge point and walk 3kms to Matheran station. After starting this line in the end of September 2012, it will be operational in monsoon also and will benifit senior citizens a lot who had to walk 3kms with luggages or do expensive horse rides.
