BTS situation in Real Time During Shutdown

[junkofdavid2]

Hi guys, does anyone know the situation INSIDE the BTS Skytrain at the moment?

Is it crowded? Or, should even the BTS be avoided?

Just dont bring in any balloons and you'll be fine.

Well, the temperature inside the train is at least 10 degrees C cooler than it should be to feel comfortable, so you certainly can't say the situation is starting to become overheated. But that's hardly news.

less crowded than usual, even approaching Siam. Great day to shop... empty city compared to normal

It was rammed at 8pm when all the shopping centres closed, huge queues inside and outside of the ticket barriers. Came back an hour later at 9pm and it was very quiet.

I know it's dumb advice, but keep your stored value cards topped up whenever you see a ticket office with no queue, those mega queues can be tiresome.

Did is short ride this mid-morning, Ploenchit, to Phrom Phong. Lighter than normal. Piece of cake.

Earlier, caught a taxi, from St. Louis, to the US Embassy. First taxi took the fare and we drove straight up. Had no problems at all.

This "shutdown" seems to be a real boon to those who need to get around town!

Rammed? Scary stuff! You mean hundreds of protestors tried to stop the train by turning themselves into a human battering ram? I bet that got messy.
