They gathered people from everywhere. They kept carrying us from one place to another. Finally, they gathered the people and put them on a bus.

This train service in Laos is amazing. Not only is it comparably fast and on time, but also very comfortable. However, the train stations are relatively far away from the city and you need to arrive quite early also because of the harsh security checks, which sometimes create lines if waiting passengers.
