Taking a Train Journey in Cambodia

Taking a Train Journey in Cambodia

Cambodian railways have a long history, but troubled with lines being installed way back when Cambodia was part of French Indochina. There was even a line connecting Siem Reap to Phnom Krom built in the 1890’s, now long since gone. Many of the lines were constructed in the 1930’s including many of the quaint countryside stations noting the art deco master pieces of Phnom Penh, and Battambang. Over the years of war the lines fell into disrepair and became impassable, with engines going off the rails becoming frequent due to the rickety tracks. Things got so bad that by early 2009 commercial rail ceased in Cambodia.
