Genuine question over "TV" viewing in Thailand

A 65-year-old deaf woman, Ms. Bai, tragically lost her life after being struck by a train while crossing the tracks in Kantang District, Trang Province. The accident occurred at approximately 12:30 on October 27, when Ms. Bai attempted to cross the railway tracks under a bridge in Moo 5, Bang Pao Subdistrict, near a spot she frequently visited to assist her relatives in their local business.

 

According to the preliminary investigation conducted by Police Lieutenant Chaisit Maneekarn of the Kantang Police Station, Ms. Bai had crossed the tracks to use a restroom on the opposite side. As she was crossing, the Bangkok Apiwat-Kantang train was approaching the Kantang station. Despite the efforts of nearby residents and family members, who tried to alert her to the oncoming train, Ms. Bai could not be stopped in time.

 

The impact threw her approximately 20 metres, resulting in fatal injuries, including severe head trauma and multiple fractures. The incident has left the local community mourning, with many neighbours expressing deep sadness over her passing.

 

Local officials, including village chief Mr. Kathayut Aphimathatham and rescue personnel from the Kusonsathan Foundation, were present at the scene, after the collision. The body was transferred to Kantang Hospital.
