Why did the train stop
Re: Why did the train stop
I went on the Bamboo railway on my last visit. Great fun but a H & S nightmare, lol
Yes, if two trains (only one carriage) meet going in opposite directions, the one with teh least people has to give way. Meaning everything and everyone off, platform off bogies off and all replaced when the larger occupancy train has moved past

I never quite got how the bamboo train is a thing (that people would pay to do).
So long as battambang remains a city with Fuck all else to do the bamboo train will thrive.

Re: Why did the train stop
Battamabang is a great place to hang for a few days and explore the region, some nice temple complex's nearby that see NO tourists, the mtn cave/temple, the nearby lake built by the KR and the ex coke plant
also some nice local restaurants in the evening on the river.

Neither, they demolished that old factory a couple of years ago.

Re: Why did the train stop
so the train line doesnt really go anywhere? like from siem reap province to battambang province? its just a pointless ride? oh thats a little dissapointingEdinWigan wrote:A Tuk Tuk from Battambang, I have a train to myself so it was $5 lasted about 20 minutes there, stretch you legs, buy a t shirt and 20 minutes back + lift off to pass time
i thought with the amount of locals i see using it it had some kind of purpose or commute or something not just a fairground ride/tourist attraction??

Re: Why did the train stop
Yeah it is a bit of disused line, the locals use it but mainly now a little local cottage industry. Still good fun
