Train #SE1 Cabin 2x, Vietnam Railways (Đường sắt Việt Nam), Sep 2, 2023
A
Angela It's a pretty old train which feels it's age, it's quite bouncy and loud. We splurged and got the 2 person sleeper cabin for some privacy, the views are amazing and the beds are pretty comfortable.
They served a meal which I do not recommend.
There is one toilet for the carriage and people do not respect it whatsoever, take plenty of wipes and sanitiser.
People also smoke in the carriage despite it being smoke-free, that smoke then wafts all through the carriage through the air-conditioning which is super uncomfortable.

Madison BWay better then the SE7. Aircon worked, food was actually good. Loads of space and a table at the each seat.
There were cockroaches crawling on the seats in front of us.

Jocelyn AFor someone who knew what to expect, it was exactly average. So do your research before hand so you aren't surprised! I don't recommend the second class bed alllll the way at the top though. Honestly, the soft berth seats seemed to be better than cramped up at the cieling with no way of getting down except climbing over the family below me. Just my personal preference, although I did sleep for a bit.

How to get from Dong Hoi to Da Nang by Train
Taking a train to get from Dong Hoi to Da Nang is a safe, fast, and scenic option to travel the country. On certain routes, there are multiple train departures per day every 10 to 15 minutes. This is typical for intercity travel, while for long distance train routes there are fewer scheduled departures – plan ahead to choose the one that fits your itinerary best.
For long distance train journeys, we recommend reserving your tickets at least a few days ahead of your travel date. Buying train tickets via our online booking system will allow you to choose and reserve the best Dong Hoi to Da Nang tickets.
Buying your tickets online will help you secure the trip on the selected date and avoid queuing at the station.. When travelling on weekends and holidays it is recommended to reserve tickets much earlier due to a much higher demand.

Travel time from Dong Hoi to Da Nang is estimated to be about 5h 27m. Trains ensure the fastest time to travel by land. As normally there is no congestion, the speed of travel is more or less constant and stops at train stations are rather short, train is almost always one of the quickest and safest ways to get from Dong Hoi and Da Nang.
The most important thing that may affect train travel time is the type of train. Ordinary trains travel at a speed of about 40 mph or 65 km/h to 65 mph or 105 km/h. Some intercity trains with shorter distances between stations run slower than 40 mph. Even with these low speeds, it can still be faster than commuting by car, bus or taxi.
The speed of express trains can reach up to 100 mph or 160 km/h. Modern high-speed trains can run at speeds exceeding 250 mph or 400 km/h.
These speeds of travel together with relatively short stops between stations can greatly shorten the duration of your trip.

Best-Rated Companies for this Route
Unlike buses or taxis which have numerous companies offering their services, train service is usually offered by just one major company in each country. As railway service requires a large amount of infrastructure, most railway companies are government-owned and are a part of the national transport system.
One of the best advantages of travelling by train is that railway stations are often conveniently located within or very near major cities and urban areas. Immediately on arrival to their destination, travellers find themselves in close proximity to important facilities like hotels, supermarkets, and hospitals.
If you travel with a lot of bags and luggage, trains are your best option. Luggage weight limits on trains are rather flexible and allow you to carry multiple bags with you.
Special or luxury trains feature sufficient legroom which allows you to stretch your legs and relax. In comfort and space these train seats can be compared to business class airplane seats.
Similar to buses, trains can provide a variety of amenities to make your travel more comfortable and enjoyable. Modern trains have WIFI service, a snack counter and a drinking bar. Onboard toilets can be a life saver for travellers with queasy stomachs.
Lastly, unlike buses and other overland means of transport, trains are very rarely involved in accidents.
