Cambodian Railway Makes Test Run for Passenger Service

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Cannot find my other photos of engines etc taken in the workshops about 2003. There were several old steam engines but I think they were probably swapped for some Chinese diesels cause of the price of steel at the time.
Photo taken about 2003 outside the PP workshops and the two new engines that were '' swapped '' for the two old steam engines that were sitting there.

Nice photo's. That would have been a nice little museum in the making.
