Kalka-Shimla.<\/p>\n<p>The Kalka-Shimla railway line is a 96.6-kilometer (60.4 mi) narrow-gauge railway line in India. It is one of the world&#8217;s highest railways, with an elevation of 2,076 meters (6,811 ft) at its highest point. The line was built between 1891 and 1903 and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.<\/p>\n<p>The line runs from Kalka in Haryana to Shimla in Himachal Pradesh. It is a single-track line with 107 tunnels and 869 bridges. The line is operated by the Indian Railways.<\/p>\n<p>The Kalka-Shimla railway line is a popular tourist destination. The line offers stunning views of the Himalayas. The line is also a popular destination for railway enthusiasts.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because they are not broad gauge railway lines. A broad gauge railway line is a railway line with a track gauge of 1,676 mm (5 ft 6 in). The other options are all narrow gauge railway lines. A narrow gauge railway line is a railway line with a track gauge of less than 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 1\u00e2\u0081\u00842 in).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Kalka-Shimla&#8221;
