Although having been running our Myanmar Steam
Program successfully for several years, we never
got tired to explore new highlights for our
steam-enthusiastic friends!
This year we repeat part of our recent successful
journey to the remote Northern Shan State, which
will be one of THE highlights of an exiting 16
days steam tour.
Starting in Yangon with Class ST 2-6-4T No. 754
(steam charter) from Insein Depot to Yangon
Central Railway Station, you can enjoy the first
runpasts, before leaving in special private
carriages to the Mon State.
By YB/YC/YD you will pass through the proper
plains of Myanmar, meet the extremely friendly
population, do wonderful runpasts and lots of
photo stops on the way. You will be among the
first steam enthusiasts visiting Kyaiktiyo, where
a 5.5. metres high stupa, resting atop a huge
gilded boulder, precariously perched high on the
edge of the hill, will let your "steam
heart" beat faster…
Not mentioning a splendid day excursion on the
local train with its steam-powered locomotive,
where you travel in a privately chartered
first-class car through rice paddy fields,
stopping at several villages - ONLY accessible by
steam!
The finale will be People's Bawdwin Industry in
Namtu, where silver mines aged hundreds of years
were discovered by the British at the end of the
19th century.

NEWS:
Despite "rumours" that already
"many, many tours" have been to Namtu, we DO
know that not more than 5 tours have been carried out
within one year. For the coming season not more than 4
tours to Namtu are planned to be allowed - our own 2
steam tour programs already included. This is done in
order not to overburden the existing infrastructure in
Myanmar and to be able to maintain a good service
standard throughout our tour programs.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS
ADVENTURE TRAVEL !
"These tours operate to remote areas in a still
underdeveloped country, where events are less predictable
than is usually the case in, for example, Western Europe
or North America. Places visited therefore lack the same
quality of emergency health and safety services as usual
at destinations in the aforementioned destinations.
Travel by rail & road is generally unreliable &
less comfortable than you are used to. Hotel &
service standards may not approach Western expectations.
The unexpected is the normal in these areas, &
despite painstaking planning and organisation, ADVENTURE
TRAVEL can never be taken for granted like a
normal holiday. These itineraries are more a Statement of
Intent than a Contractual Obligation." (Quote by
TEFS)
