| Sep 30, 2016 at 16:26 | comment | added | Ivan | I imagine that this is not usual for tourist @PeterHahndorf, but I was surprised that this possibility even exists. No broken bridges? No bad rails anywhere? ... | |
| Sep 30, 2016 at 13:30 | comment | added | Peter Hahndorf | If think there are tracks between Battambang and Phnom Penh, so it's possible if you are willing to pay someone enough, but I have no idea how much enough is!. While riding these trains is fun for a while, I wouldn't use them all the way between the two cities, very uncomfortable, unless they introduced luxury seats since my last visit. It may take a long time too. Sorry I don't have details. | |
