Bamboo Train
A little legend and not that easy to find. The Battambang Bamboo Train. It’s a DIY, collapsible portable (Bamboo of course) train and it needs to be really. When the real train comes it’s gotta get off that track pretty sharpish. Fortunately there is only one train a week at the moment after the passenger train was indefinitely cancelled.
To catch the train, whatever you do don’t ask anyone where you get it, or follow the signs. The signs just kind of end and people were directing us all over the place. Find the railway track…. and wait a bit.
The passenger station might not see another passenger. Instead, it’s a slightly unlikely tourist attraction for the few tourists who venture this far.
it’s only 79 years old, plenty of life left in it yet.
