Watching back to the 1950s when Cambodia was one of the most powerful and developed countries in South East Asia, all fields in Cambodia were all in advanced ranging from agriculture to industry. Civil wars have happened to this country time and time again; which drives the country deteriorated from year to year.
I remember when i was about 7, the railway in Cambodia still worked smoothly. Unfortunately 5 or 6 years later, when i came to see that again, it seemed to be ruined seriously. I didn't know what happened or they use it but it had never been in maintenance. The rail on which the train run was as low as the ground. I kept asking myself: what if the train borrowed the road to roll on.
Nowadays, the train isn't for the people anymore as it is used to transfer goods mainly from Phnom Penh to others provinces. If you go to my hometown, Banteay Mean Chey province you'll be able to see and try something like the following photos ;)i assure it will be fun to be on it rolling to the remote countryside and get some fresh air.

I didn't know you're from Banteay Mean Chey. I've been there twice with some friends. I really liked it.
