Robert of RMB Rail Asia: For the continuing story about the Maeklong
lines here is a small feature about the infrastructure--the rail
pier at Ban Laem.
As you can see at the first picture (left) the
construction is still there and ready for use although I never
saw any rolling stock on it. The date: March 29, 1986.
Two years later (below), April 1, 1988, and
for sure, no joke, decay takes its toll.

Twelve years later, March 13, 2000, a ship passes
by (right) as the remains of the pier are only visible during
low tide.
