CHON BURI, Oct 2 (TNA) — The first two monorail trains that will run on Pink and Yellow Lines in greater Bangkok were received at the Laem Chabang port today as the two lines were set to start operation in two years.

 

Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha and executives of the Transport Ministry, the Interior Ministry and the Metropolitan Rapid Transit Authority ceremonially accepted the trains on Thursday.

 

Both trains are parts of 72 driverless Bombardier Innovia Monorail 300 trains that will run on both railways which are under construction and will be feeders of main electric railways.

Yesterday the very same trains were shown and described as "bogeys" in a Nation news item on this website.

 

The joke was that there were no bogies (correct spelling for wheel units that are attached beneath conventional locomotives/carriages) to be had in, on, or around that which was/is depicted.

Snot a lot of people know that.

The bogies for a monorail car are hidden underneath the car so they aren't visible from the outside.

 

From the photo it is impossible to tell if the bogies are already attached to these cars or not but is likely that they are already attached.

Let's hope they are not installed upside down.

N

I hope they don't succumb to the same fate as the fire engines & nice blue NGV buses ????

When operational it will be a great improvement.
