<ul><p> Nuwara Eliya station was opened to the public in August 1904. It was a main station of the Nanuoya - Ragala 19 miles narrow gauge railway line. The other stations were Black Pool, Kandapola, and Brook Side. The train journey was taken 2 and half hours from Nanuoya to Ragala through romantic tea country of the central hills when it was functioning.<br>Unfortunately, this railway line was closed in 1948. Remnants of the railway line and stations can be seen even today.</p><p><br></p><p><b>You also like to read:</b></p><p>Best train journeys in the world :<a href="https://www.fantasiatours.com/blogs/view-blog/b-e-s-t-t-r-a-i-n-j-o-u-r-n-e-y-s-i-n-t-h-e-w-o-r-l-d" target="_blank">https://www.fantasiatours.com/blogs/view-blog/b-e-s-t-t-r-a-i-n-j-o-u-r-n-e-y-s-i-n-t-h-e-w-o-r-l-d</a></p><p> </p></ul>
