Strange vision in Cha am train station

[Aforek]

Today, at about 5 pm, I was in the wednesday market, and I saw the Eastern & Oriental express stopped ( may be for a long time already ) in Cha am railway station

I think it's very rare and I don't know what it did here; of course I looked at it and I thought " no the same that Thai trains ! "

beautiful and classy wagons !

that's all, but I think it will never happen again, unless it's a normal stop, but I don't think so ( the red light was on and the train completely stopped )

I've looked into a trip on that train and it is total luxury like first class flying or first class on the best cruise ship... for the very wealthy only.

Yes, even from outside, it's a "big train", there were the signs" Singapore-Kuala Lumpur - Butterworth-Bangkok" written on every wagon

I came back one or two hours later, and of course it was not here anymore; sure a technical stop because of the red lights ahead ( accident or something on the track ) , but great and unexpected sight in the small Cha am railway station

Saw it passing through Hua Hin yesterday around 3:30.

I would love to see that, did you guys take any pictures?

I was at Hua Hin Railway Station mid afternoon 2 weeks ago and it had stopped there.

Very impressive it was so long it nearly went back to the level crossing.
