රේල් පාර දිගේ මැදවච්චිය සිට අනුරාධපුරය දක්වා (28km) | Medawachchiya - A'Pura Rail Hike (2019)

Show Your Love by becoming a "Member" - / @sriabeywickrema
This is the story of my first ever rail hike along dry zone flat lands. All this time I'd trekked along Colombo-Badulla upcountry railway line but decided to change course with this trek which turned out to be a novel experience.
There are 4 main railway stations between Medawachchiya and Anuradhapura which are given below with respective distances between them.
Medawachchiya - Medagama Sub Railway Station = 10km
Medagama Sub Railway Station - Parasangahawewa = 4km
Parasangahawewa - Saliyapura = 8km
Saliyapura - Mihintale Junction = 4.5km
Mihintale Junction - A’Pura = 1.5km
In addition to them, there are many railway platforms where the rail bus (now a 3-carriage Canadian M4 engine) stops primarily covering office and school hours. They are:
Viralmurippuwa
Siyambalagaswewa
Buddanegama
Mangalagama
Puliyankulama
In addition to the above, we also came across some beautiful and brand new trains in service of Sri Lankan Railways:
S11 (Indian), S12 (Chinese) and S13 (Indian) Power Sets.
M4 (Canadian), M10A (Indian) and M11 (Indian) Engines.
We also got lucky to see the sacred Jethawanaramaya, Ruwanweliseya and Abhayagiriya Stupa and distant view of Mihintale Mountain Range.
This journey took almost 10hrs from 7.30am till 5.30pm.

Special Note for the Viewers:
I’ve done this video to make you aware of the beauty of this place and please don’t misuse this information in order to ruin it. I’ve spent so much of time/money bringing this to you so that you may enjoy it.
I also have a very kind and humble request to make. Should you ever visit this place, you’re kindly requested to adhere to the following in order to save our Mother Nature not only for the future generations but for the current one as well:
* Avoid careless/irresponsible/money-oriented/mega tour groups or organizers.
* Travel in small groups as Mother Nature can’t afford so many footprints at once. Stick to the designated trails or hardback surfaces at all times.
* Minimize the use of polythene/plastic and do bring them back. Please don’t burn them in the wilderness. Even organic/bio-degradable waste is harmful to the nature and animals. Please stick to the simple rule of “if you pack it in, pack it out”.
* Use reusable water bottles, plates and cups. Even paper cups/plates are harmful and take years to decompose.
* Remain quiet and vigilant. Don’t disturb the tranquility of the nature. Respect wildlife and don’t disturb them in anyway. Also be considerate of other trekkers.
* Please collect and bring any litter/garbage left behind by other careless travellers.
* Don’t light fires unnecessarily and do try to use portable cookers instead of using firewood when camping. If you must, only use firewood on the ground and don’t cut any trees for this.
* Don’t bring any plants back with you or cut any trees/branches unnecessarily..
* Don’t use soap/ shampoo when bathing in natural streams as they contaminate them and kill wildlife.
* Don’t do anything that harms the Mother Nature.
