Colombo to Habarana Destination Reviews

EH
Great journey! Carriage wasn't crowded. Lovely and cool with fans and breeze front open windows
Colombo to Habarana, Train #6075 Third Class Reserved Seats, Sri Lanka Railway, Nov 3, 2025
It was a second-class car, but the legroom was narrow and cramped. The train was very shaky and noisy, but it was one of the more enjoyable experiences of the trip. The view from the window was very nice.

Underrated transportation option! Totally enjoyed having a reserved seat in 3rd class. The fans were working and you can see the nice landscape though the open windows and doors.
