Camp Nong Pladuk (also: Nompuradokku^[1]) was a Japanese prisoner of war transit camp during World War II. It was located about five kilometres from the main railway station of Ban Pong^[2] near a junction station on the Southern Line to Bangkok. Nong Pladuk served as the starting point of the Burma Railroad. Numerous British, Dutch, and allied troops passed through Nong Pladuk to construct the railroad. Nowadays, it serves as a rail road maintenance and repair facility.
