LOST TRACK — A search along the Burma– Thailand Railway 65 years later The backbreaking work on this 415 kilometre railway began in June 1942 and ended 16 months later in October 1943. Some 178,000 Asian forced labourers and 61,811 prisoners of war worked on this project. More than 99,000 people died from exhaustion, disease or malnutrition. It is now 65 years since the Japanese surrendered and this hell ended. Much of the original railway has disappeared or changed over the past decades and any remaining traces will soon cease to exist, as will the people who were forced to work on it. A piece of history threatens to be lost. This publication makes the railway visible, again. LOST TRACK — Een zoektocht langs de Birma– Thailand Spoorweg 65 jaar later Het barre werk aan deze spoorweg begon in juni 1942 en werd na 415 kilometer, 16 maanden later in oktober 1943 voltooid. Aan dit project hebben ongeveer 178.000 Aziatische dwangarbeiders en 61.811 krijgsgevangenen gewerkt. Meer dan 99.000 mensen stierven door uitputting, ziekte en ondervoeding. Het is nu 65 jaar geleden dat Japan zich overgaf en aan deze hel een einde kwam. Veel is in de afgelopen decennia verdwenen of veranderd; de overgebleven sporen zullen verdwijnen door de tand des tijds. Net als de mensen die eraan gewerkt hebben. Een stuk ‘tastbare’ geschiedenis verdwijnt langzaam maar zeker. Deze publicatie maakt het spoortraject weer zichtbaar.
