	Heritage railway - Wikinfo
		A heritage railway is a term used, especially in Great Britain, for a railway which is run as a tourist attraction and is usually but not always run by volunteers, and seeks to re-create railway scenes of the past.
		Heritage railways are usually railway lines which were once run as proper commercial railways, but were later no longer needed, or were closed down, and were taken over or re-opened by volunteers.
		There are an especially large number of heritage railways in the United Kingdom due to the large number of railway lines that were closed in the 1960s, and British people's liking for railways.

	World Heritage Centre - Global Strategy
		Its aim is to ensure that the List reflects the world's cultural and natural diversity of outstanding universal value.
		Twenty-two years after the adoption of the 1972 Convention concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage, the World Heritage List lacked balance in the type of inscribed properties and in the geographical areas of the world that were represented.
		This new vision goes beyond the narrow definitions of heritage and strives to recognize and protect sites that are outstanding demonstrations of human coexistence with the land as well as human interactions, cultural coexistence, spirituality and creative expression.

	Railways as World Heritage Sites
		Railways were not the only technology to further the process of imperialism: the steamship, the telegraph, and new medicines such as quinine were also important.
		Railway companies frequently came to own canals, while the transfer of technologies between the different modes occurred regularly, especially during the construction phase: railway lines were built by teams of men known in Britain and elsewhere as ‘navvies’ — derived from the name ‘navigator’ that groups of labourers acquired while building inland waterways.
		Railway construction on the plains between 1858 and 1878, partly by the broad-gauge Eastern Bengal Railway (EBR) and partly by the metre-gauge state-owned Northern Bengal Railway (NBR), connected Calcutta with Siliguri, at the foot of the Himalaya.
