the bamboo traincar in Batambang, Cambodia



we  went to the bambo train it was scarier than a roller coster because we weren't strapped in and that the hole thing comes off the rail tracks because it is only one rail line and if someone comes along in the other direction they have to take the train off the tracks so they can pass.
 so that  means that if it can come off, if you hit somthing you will go flying. skary I know!



 
This is what happened when we were going along and someone came from the other direction.
 

 
 
They are taking off the train from the tracks
 

 
Now they are putting it back on
 

 
 
Thats the person driving the train. Its a motor with a rubber belt that goes on the axel and makes it spin.
When he pushes on the stick it tightens the belt on the axle and makes it go faster.
