It was built by the Japanese Imperial army in the 1940’s using prisoners of war as forced labour.If you would like to read more about the railway and its history wikipedia has a basic article on the railway. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_Railway
This is only a small documentation of the journey from Bangkok to Kanchanaburi and Nam Tok (the current end of the line)It is a beautiful journey with a horrific past. One that I think more people should undertake.
