$6 to and from SihanoukVille and 2+ hours. $9 to and from Phnom Penh and 5 hours.
Beautiful ride through the Cambodian countryside on newly refurbished passenger cars from the 50’s and 60’s. Beverages and some food served aboard the train, and you can stop off in Takeo for a snack if coming from Phnom Penh.
