Good morning from Krung Thep Aphiwat Central Terminal Station. This weekend I’m off again on one of my train trips to promote rail tourism in Thailand. I’m doing two major destination trips per month with the kind cooperation of the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) who are helping me with logistical support. I’m on this trip with my friend Mike from Thailandee.com.

This trip is in two parts. We first took the train to Nakhon Ratchasima. And then a bus to Phimai to attend the light and sound show. Then the next morning we went back to Nakhon Ratchasima to catch the same train but this time to the end of the line in Ubon Ratchathani. We then rented a van there for a two day trip before catching the sleeper train back to Bangkok on Monday night.
