The new Hua Hin train station will be inaugurated on December 11 with the arrival of the first train. From December 15, all trains will pass through the elevated station, a stone's throw from the old building, loved by tourists. It is said to be a kind of train museum. The old tracks may then be used by freight trains.
Hua Hin Railway Station is of royal allure
The Hua Hin Railway Station is undoubtedly the most photographed object in the resort town. The royal waiting room dates back to the time of King Rama VI, and is located a short distance from the center of the city.
A bump to the coast
I've been coming to Bangkok for almost forty years, but it was only recently that I was alerted to a second terminal. This station is located on the west side of the river, in Thonburi, near King Taksin Square.
By train through Thailand and the timetable?
Looking for train timetables (or regular bus connections) for: Udon Thani, Kon Khaen, Buriam, Korat, Lopburi, Kanchanaburi, Lampang, Paktong Chai.. possibly on the Mekong east.
Hua Lamphong, the central train station in Bangkok, brings back warm memories for me. In some time the role of this station will be played out. Nothing is permanent and that is a pity….
'Train services from Hua Lamphong will stop on December 23'
The State Railway of Thailand (SRT) will have to stop operating train services from Hua Lamphong station as the land on which the station is located will be used for commercial development, transport minister Saksayam Chidchob said.
The railway workers' union is opposing the closure of Hua Lamphong Central Station in November this year, when all train services will be transferred to Bangkok's brand new Bang Sue Grand Station.
Reader question: Is the new train station ready yet?
Does anyone know what the state of the brand new train station in Bangkok is, is it almost finished?

Hua Lamphong train station
Been to Bangkok main train station for a few days in a row. I'll tell you what I'm doing there. The departure hall and adjoining part is a wonderful place for hobby photographers. You will find the most diverse figures and in the large hall it is always very busy.
Pattaya Railway Station
Pattaya has several transport options but the train is hardly mentioned. It is not directly in the perception of the tourists and the people who live here.
I have a question about the train station procedure. When I'm at a small train station I see a pole with a ring on it. When the train arrives, the ring is ripped off the pole by someone from the train. Why is that done?
Chiang Mai Train Station (video)
