THE Myanma Railway has been providing the Kalaw-Aungban railway coaches for homegrown visitors starting from April 2025 to enjoy the spectacular scenery of the Shan hills.
“This
railway car runs daily on the route. It is designated for local visitors. The
rent for the whole carriage that can accommodate 15 passengers is K120,000 per
return trip. It can be booked in advance. If not, they need to wait for a
couple of hours. The trip takes an hour and a half. It aims to run once a day
in May. The passengers mostly take the train ride to take pictures of scenic
views,” said an official from the Kalaw Station.
Locals
from Taunggyi, Aungban, Kalaw and other regions enjoy this railway car, costing
K8,000 per ticket.
The
train stops for 15 minutes for the visitors to take photos near tourist spots
(Byaik Hill, Myindaik). Furthermore, Kalaw-Aungban steam-powered locomotives
and carriages have arrived at Aungban station to provide Kalaw-Aungban steam
train route services.
