The Saigon - My Tho railway line was inaugurated as the first train service in French Indochina in 1885. It was used after the Indo-China War, undergoing destruction and restoration until 1958.
Usually, I used the U.S. army map for an old Vietnam map. However, I only had the 1970 edition, after the line was disused. I traced the route, using a Japanese foreign country, 1/100000 scale, map printed in 1940. The railway that ran side by side on the National Highway QL1 left the road in the Cho Den river, and took a separate route.
I can definitely find the trace of the route when I look on an aerial photograph on Google.
This way, a factory siding of the right seems to be a route trace.
There might be a railroad line alongside palm trees.
The railroad line had spanned the river here, but I couldn't find the abutment pier trace.
Across the river, let's search on the opposite bank.
There is a way to draw a rail curve. Because the surrounds are ponds and damp ground, this must not have to been an abolished line trace.
Neighborhood of My Tho. The old road was an abolished line trace, but the way was wide, and I could not find the trace.
