Off the Rails in Battambang
Forwarded pictures from pal Geoff’s visit to Battambang:
the ‘Norry’ or Bamboo Train.
Since the main track between Battambang and Phnom Phnom Penh isn’t used much, these ad-hoc vehicles traverse the tracks quite often. I hope to get a look in person one of the these days.
