2:07 Former Kiha 40 trains to be exact, probably the most popular DMU that started service in Japan since the JNR era, some of them still run along some rural lines in Japan
Cool video. In 2015, I took the night train to Mandalay from Yangon. I think I may have experienced an astral projection. Unique experience to say the least.
Naming system of Myanmar railway locomotive. DD 940, first "D" stands for Diesel-Electric type locomotive. Traction motors between the axles are driven by electricity which is generated by Diesel engine onboard. Second "D" stands for total of "four" driving axles (2 bogies - each has 2 driving axles - depends on the maker). "940" means its Diesel engine has 900HP and the last two digits, "40" tells that the serial number of this locomotive under 900HP-4 driving axles series. Just for your information.
Έχουν κατασκευάσει σοβαρές σιδηροδρομικές υποδομές αλλά χρειάζονται εκσυγχρονισμό, διαφορετικά κινδυνεύουν να υποπέσουν σε μια τριτοκοσμική κατάσταση και αυτό δεν θα είναι υπέρ ούτε των ντόπιων κατοίκων ούτε φυσικά του διεθνούς εμπορείου...
All it needs is some new rails and a few licks of fresh paint and the system could really shine.

Why India transit? It’s boring and rundown...
This is Myanmar not India.
India's Transit isn't boring and run down, it is still in development, even the smallest of cities metropolis or not, will get metros and metrolites.
