A construction worker was left in shock after discovering a human skull detached from a nearby skeleton inside an abandoned railway station in Chachoengsao. Initially believing it to be a staged stunt for social media content, he hesitated to contact the police. However, upon further inspection, it became clear that the remains were real, with the deceased wearing what appeared to be a chef’s uniform.

 

At approximately 20:30 on 9 March, Police Lieutenant Colonel Chatchawan Saengsuwan, an investigator at Mueang Chachoengsao Police Station, received a report of a skeletal human remains at the disused Bang Toei railway station in Bang Toei subdistrict. The authorities, including forensic specialists from Phutthasothon Hospital and a rescue team, were dispatched to the scene.

 

Inside the former ticket office, police found a human skull that had rolled approximately three metres from the rest of the body. The skeleton was lying on its back, clad in a navy-blue V-neck shirt tied at the collar, resembling a uniform worn by a Japanese restaurant chef, along with black three-quarter-length trousers. Nearby, a chair and a nylon rope were discovered.

 

The deceased was identified as male, but no identification documents were found, only 1,600 baht in cash and a handwritten note stating that he had chosen to end his life and requested no further investigation. It is estimated that the individual had been deceased for over a year.

 

Ekaphon, 36, the man who found the remains, recounted that he had been riding his motorcycle after work and decided to explore the abandoned station due to its eerie but peaceful atmosphere.

 

“I saw a skull on the floor of a room. When I looked inside, I saw a headless body. I was so shocked and thought it might be a prank or some sort of staged content, so I hesitated to call the police, fearing it might be a false report,” he explained. Instead, he alerted a local online news page, which led to the confirmation that the remains were real.

 

Thanakorn, 43, the assistant village headman, noted that this was not the first such incident at Bang Toei station. Three years ago, another man had reportedly taken his own life in a nearby building after an argument with his girlfriend.

 

The remains have been sent to hospital for further examination, while police continue investigations to determine the man’s identity and locate any surviving relatives for a proper funeral.
