It's small museum but quality is not as small.
This museum is in Thanbyuzayat ,30 miles from Mawlamyaing. It's valued 4000kyats of admission fee, the staffs are very kindly and helpful.He begins to show us the first impression of 3D corner where we was photo ,look alike we were on track of the real railwals when reaching the brink of high cliff. There are exhibition about how POWs were living at those time of construction the dead railway line from here to merge with the line from thailand in the middle.vicinity is also interesting to explore, threre is real locomotives on the rail. The real track links between Thanbyuzayat and Mawlamyaing.

A very commemorative museum with a huge amount of history recorded. The track got this far. It was built in record time with unimaginable suffering and loss of life. It was soon bombed out of use. How sad humans are.
