Bangkok To Butterworth By Train No Longer...

[Khun Bob]

I have the feeling that thre will be no change to this service - on the return leg i got the last berth on the train and that was 2 weeks in advance... Then again it is august...

On the way back the train took out a big mercedes that happenned to be on the railway line at the same time on a road crossing. The driver was in a bad state but not killed. Delayed the train about 30 mins. Happenned about 15 mins before had yai station. If this had happenned in the uk, would have been very different. I guess the driver was not listening as the train driver certainly made alot of siren noise on approach to all non-barriered crossings...
