    So glad they revived this in Battambang. It should be a world heritage site!

    Awesome video. I think it's cool how they find ingenious to reuse things like old tank parts or exploded shells and stuff.
    Those things are actaully pretty fast, looks fun to ride.

    Railway is so compromised, then real trains must proceed slowly. These little rail sleds are absolutely brilliant. Lightweight, faster than real trains and cheap to run.

    I love my country! The best time to go is before the harvest, when the rice field is green. My families lived in Osalov Battambang, I saw a few 'norries' when I was there. I'll definitely will hop on one next time I visit--which is Dec 27, 2008

    Can't do that here in the US. Even thought the lines are long since abandoned they still own them and prosecute any who walk, rides or anything else on them. I had a friend with a railbike. He road on a 80 year abandoned line. Someone saw him and the Company had him arrested for Trespassing.

    @RRED2 you should go visit cambodia. i absolutely loved it there, the people are nice and friendly, everything is inexpensive, and it is an absolutely beautiful country. i went to phnom penh, siem riep, kampong song, and to the angkhor wat temples. just pack comfy shoes and loose thin clothes... it is very very very hot there.

    What a wonderful idea! And, no bloody 'red-tape' saying "you can't do that because"!
    If there is any arguments, they just lift the 'floor' off the wheels and where is the train, it can't have been us because we have no trains! LOL! Like it a lot. Common sense is a wonderful thing if you let it happen.

    @Lifecomesfromwithin 16 ปีที่แล้ว

    They'd try to look beforehand as far as they could, I would think, and decide if they can make it or not. If they're on the bridge, I guess all you could do is grab it and run really fast. You know?

  • @JonsGarage89

    i believe that in the future cars will run on rail networks because runing on rails is far more efficient than driving on conventional roads because there is far less road friction ... in this way i believe those inginius poor cambodians are already into the future ... :) !

    While this is truly boot-strap rail tourism, this is the way one has to go if you really want to experience, real tourism.
    The westerners whom go first class miss the real world. All they see are is fancy hotels and restaurants. Not real people and true asian people and customs. I'll travel the rougher road anyday. It is real way of the world. Travel second class, it actually more fun!

    @insanox Aaah, you sit on the train you must be carrefool! (1:28). Lots of people wonder what to do should you encounter a bridge. Well, there are no bridges over there, only the ones the train drives over at for instance crossing a river. Reading the comments people should be careful on what they write. What a load of crap! swearing, cursing and humiliating other people in the face of the entire world is rude. Be CARREFOOL fellows!
