This preliminary walking tour from your place of stay in PD to the PD Waterfront has been very interesting. You seem like an explorer unearthing some interesting finds. The remnants of a railway gate at a crossing indicated there was rail service to PD. A similar piece of history of a railway gate lies at the main traffic intersection into Teluk Intan (formerly Teluk Anson) Town in Perak. A kilometre away is the railway bridge across the Bidor River that opened in 1893. A further 800 metres away is the spot where a bull elephant charged onto an oncoming train and derailed it. That was the first case of a derailment in Malaya. A monument was erected at the accident spot in memory of the bold elephant. We had two railway stations in Teluk Intan, one a Km away from the town centre and another at the riverfront wharf about 4 Kms from the town station. Fare was only 5 cents from one station to the other as a student. This was the era of steam locomotive pulled trains. Sadly the rail service from Tapah and both the railway stations in Teluk Intan have ceased operations.
I domt know man but I rather approach a dog tjhat is barking, cuz barking dogs seldom bite, for good measure, I dont appoach a dog that does not bark because those bugger might be dangerous :) not talking about street dogs.
