There is a rail connection service to the Cambodian border city of Poipet. First opened in 1955, this service has seen closures between 1961–1970 and 1974–2019 due to neglect and poor diplomatic relations, but is back in operation as of April 2019.[2] Later, it was closed again due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1]
