Good morning from Bangkok Railway Station. Today I’m on the KiHa-183 excursion train to Chachoengsao. This is a THEAD of the trip. More information here: thaitrainguide.com/excursion-trai… You can also find more train photos and videos by following @ThaiTrainGuide.

The KiHa-183 trains were donated by Japan. They were then refurbished in the Makkasan Workshops so that they look as good as new. They kept the livery the same as when it was used in Japan. There also kept the information signs. The KiHa-183 trains will be used as tourist trains.

The trip today is a package tour to Chachoengsao. The ticket price is 1,999 Baht which includes breakfast, lunch and a bus/boat tour. #Thailand

🚂 Special Express No. 7 from Bangkok to Chiang Mai (8:30am-7:30pm). Three 2nd Class Daewoo carriages with air-con and reclining seats.

I will be getting off in Phitsanulok at 1:12pm. Ticket for me is 479 Baht which includes a meal.

[2] The seats on the No.7/8 recline and there’s a reasonable amount of leg room. The drop-down table on the seat-back looks reasonably clean but I would bring soft wipes. Luggage space is adequate if your bags are not too big.

[3] The toilets are clean enough. You have the choice between squat toilets and Western style. There’s a washbasin with a small bar of soap. There’s also a microwave where the attendant for our carriage is already warming up our meals six at a time.

Tonight, a 15 hour journey by train: Hamburg - Stockholm with Snälltåget. A perfect example of why I love night trains - concert in Lübeck at 20:00, shower, train at 23:26. 😍 #railfan

“Rustic” accommodations onboard 😉

Nothing a little proper lighting, duvets, fresh linens, and two beers 🍻 can’t fix!

Lovely day for a @bikestreets family adventure.

We took the 35th Ave bikeway over towards the BNSF yard at 41st and Fox to watch the trains. I’m not sure who was more excited about the trains... my 1 and 3 year old kids, or me. #DoubleStackIntermodal #RailFan
