Yangon Circular Railway consists of 39 stations with the length of 45.9km, while the duration of the entire circle takes up to 3 hours. Since Burmese government operated the railway 4 years ago, financial deficit has been recorded on monthly basis. Burmese people, however, are able to make a living by selling eggs, noodles, cigarettes and Areca Palm, while making fun with foreign people. The 3-hour journey is compressed into 3 minutes by laughter, steam whistle and surrounding delightful sceneries.
緬甸仰光的環狀鐵路，共39個車站，總長度只有45.9公里，行車時間卻長達三個小時。鐵路在四年前開始由政府經營，雖然一直錄得虧損，但是養活了不少當地居民。他們在火車上售賣雞蛋、撈麵、煙草、檳榔，還懂得與外籍人士開玩笑，三個小時就此被歡笑聲、氣笛氣和周邊怡人的景色，壓縮的像三分鐘一般轉瞬即逝。
