I have always wanted to go and see the bridge over the river kwai. Last January when we were in Thailand we drove out there to have a look around. The town was a bit of a disappointment but the train trip made up for it. The town was very quiet and seems to rely on bus tours and people shopping at those gem shops. Here are some pictures I took on the train.
this was at the station.
these two children were having a good old time in someones hammock.
heading out crazy you can stand on the bridge as the train goes bye.
we also took one of these boats up the river it was a nice trip.
these are the platforms to stand on when the train goes over.
you have to be careful putting your head out the window.
here are a few Bangkokians with there dog out for a trip in the country.
after a few kilometers we got close to the river again quite a view.
I will put up a few more tomorrow.
