รายละเอียดเส้นทางนี้เป็นภาษาอังกฤษ
After Pyin Oo Lwin the train snakes its way through pleasant countryside to the highlight of the trip, the crossing of a spectacular valley on the dramatic Gokteik viaduct, just after Gokteik station. The Gokteik viaduct was built in 1901 by an American firm of contractors who won the tender with a design allegedly far more advanced than any of the other bids. When built, it had the highest span of any bridge in the British Empire, and was the only American-built bridge in the Empire, too. Rumour has it that the Burmese government did no maintenance on the bridge whilst a British insurance policy was still in force, but you'll be relieved to hear that the bridge was renovated in the 1990s. The train passes over at walking pace, and you may be prevented from taking photographs as the Burmese consider the bridge to be of strategic importance. Don't lean out of the window and look downwards if you suffer from vertigo! Expect an arrival at the other end around 15-60 minutes late.
