Established since 1953, the railway station of Battambang recently reopened in July 2018 after being demolished during the Cambodian Civil War. The war left the rail tracks in poor condition, leading to a suspension of train services. After renovations, Battambang Station now operates trains to destinations such as Pursat, Phnom Penh, and Poi Pet, extending all the way to the Thailand border.
However, trains from Battambang to Phnom Penh run only once a week, while trains to Poi Pet operate every Monday. For a more comfortable ticket booking experience, commuters are advised to check train schedules and fares for departures and arrivals at Battambang Railway Station via online booking websites.
Transportation options such as tuk-tuks, motorbike hires, and local taxis are readily available in the city center to reach Battambang Railway Station. Nearby landmarks include Sangker Gallery, only 3 minutes away, and the Central Market, about a 5-minute drive from the train station.
The Royal Railways of Cambodia operates multiple train services from Battambang Station, offering varied schedules and reasonably priced fares. Passengers can review train schedules and prices through online platforms such as Easybook.
Since reopening, Battambang Station does not provide many facilities for convenience. Guests may need assistance to use the washrooms, and ticket counters operate only before train departures. Nearby, there are a few shops and restaurants.
Booking train tickets to and from Battambang Station is easy with Easybook’s online platform. Users can browse various timetables and affordable ticket prices for trips across Cambodia anytime, anywhere.
