A mesmerizing portrayal of life along the railway. People selling their goods, making a living, in the midst of monsoon-like showers they contend with so nonchalantly. You really captured the local color!

That looks so interesting Gavin, are you able to hop on and off and change trains? How about toilet stops?

While it is a such of a colorful place, it seems to me, that it is just a half a step higher, then most third world countries. The citizens are colorful; I should clarify that, by stating, the people in your video are colorful characters, but they're just an empty discarded banana peel away from being completely destitute. You had upper floors and roof tops of some of the buildings along your way, that you had recorded. Some buildings looked somewhat modern, and even some looked like they were occupied by the upper class of the Myanmarian society. So then, there a few have-a-lots, and many have-a-little or nothing at all. All those years of a complete military dictatorship, will do that to a country. The citizens have no knowledge of how to think about their government, because they have experience with democracy, without the minimal leadership, which has only been in place for a couple of years. Hopefully it will become better and stabilize.
