Experience a retro-styled carriage in a classic British-made Vulcan steam locomotive. FMTNews
The North Borneo Railway provides nostalgia-loving tourists the opportunity to experience a half-day outing in a retro-styled railway carriage pulled by a classic British-made Vulcan steam locomotive.
The staff on-board the train wear colonial era pith helmets, “empire builder” shorts and long white socks. The five carriages are refurbished with vintage seat upholstery and are not air-conditioned. Passengers should arrive at Tanjung Aru railway station at 9.30am where a continental breakfast will be served on-board before the train departs at 10am.
Rural kampung village scenes are next before reaching the town of Kinawat. The train stops here for 20 minutes allowing you a chance to disembark for a quick look at the Tien Shi Temple.
