Rail transport in Brunei

Rail transport in Brunei highlights its role in industrial and wartime efforts, beginning with the Brooketon Colliery's 19th century coal railway to Muara's harbour, which aided steamship routes. Later, Brunei Shell Petroleum (BSP) built a line from Seria to Badas in the 1930s for water and pipeline transport, reactivated briefly by Australian forces in the Second World War. Today, Brunei LNG uses a rail system to transport equipment offshore, and plans for a Trans Borneo Railway aim to enhance trade by linking Brunei with neighbouring regions, underscoring rail's lasting impact on Brunei's economy and connectivity.
