In Lin Thin was a working camp for prisoners of war occupied by Dutch during the construction of the Thailand-Burma Railway in world war II.

Picture: Ex-prisoners of war members of a War Graves Commission survey party at Rinteng (Rin Tin) rail siding on the Burma-Thailand railway. The War Graves Commission survey party traversed the railway over the period 9 September to 10 October 1945. Their task was to locate all the POW cemeteries and grave sites between Nong Pladuk and Thanbyuzayat. They also recovered records and cameras which had been buried in individual graves, unbeknown to the Japanese, by senior POW officers.
