Trains from Bangkok to some neighbouring provinces back in service
The State Railway of Thailand (SRT) has reopened train services to certain destinations from Bangkok from Tuesday (April 28) after most services were suspended due to the Covid-19 crisis.
SRT governor Nirut Maneephan said some services between Bangkok and nearby areas currently running are too overcrowded and not in line with the government’s social-distancing measures.
This is why, he said, SRT has decided to reopen some more routes to support travellers.
The services that have restarted are:
Train Nos 317 and 318: Bangkok-Lopburi-Bangkok
Train Nos 339 and 340: Bangkok-Kaeng Khoi-Bangkok
Train Nos 379 and 380: Bangkok-Hua Takhe-Bangkok
Train Nos 389 and 390: Bangkok-Chachoengsao-Bangkok.
