Overview

The North Borneo Railway is an oldest running steam train featuring a British Vulcan steam locomotive. Designed for wood burning, the engine is a costly yet more sustainable form of steam.

It is refurbished to let visitors experience the nostalgic romance of the bygone era of the Colonial days of British North Borneo, allowing all passengers to discover the unique sights and sound of the countryside while passing through Sabahan villages, paddy fields, plantations and rainforest. All of these can be explored while on board vintage steam engine train.
