Train in Bolivia
Train travel in Bolivia is safe in comparison with bus travel, where lost of accidents happens. There is a few unconnected railroad lines. Train tickets are cheap, but a little more ekspensive then bus tickets. The trains are slow, but it is worth the patience if you dont want to go by old busses on dirt roads, which most covers Bolivia. On the Altiplano there is a railroad from Oruro to Villazon on the Argentine border. In the east there is a railroad line from Santa Cruz to the Brazilian frontier at Quijarro. There is no railroad to La Paz.
