Read the Ignorant Traveler story at http://www.paperbacknovel.com/ignorant_traveler/bangkok.htm Lots of people live right by the tracks all along this railroad, mostly illegal immigrants from Burma (Myanmar) and other countries. The train that travels this track goes to Burma -- the old Death Railway with Hellfire Pass up north in Burma (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burma_Railway) -- or the train could take the route to Vietnam. Watching over my shoulder at all times during this walk as you can't be sure if you're in a 'bad neighborhood' or not when on the road.
