Looks like trains wil have to travel on water very soon. Some time ago there was a proposal may be from Singapore to reclaim a stretch of land along the beachfrom galle face to about wellawatte. Wonder what happened to that. Another project screwed up my the family junta? Hopefullt the new regime would be able to revive it and get it done. With the road adjacent to the railway line there is little room t o move the line is errosion take over.
