🚂 Good morning from Hua Lamphong Station. Today is the 126th anniversary of the opening of the first railway in Thailand and the founding of the State Railway of Thailand on 26th March 1897. Today I am taking the steam excursion train to the ancient capital of Thailand to do a one day trip that I designed myself. I will be taking a boat and Tuk Tuk for this tour.

DATE OF TRAVEL: 25th March 2023

There are six steam train trips a year on important dates. They go to three different locations: Ayutthaya, Chachoengsao and Nakhon Pathom. Tickets are 299 Baht for 3rd Class (8 carriages) and 799 Baht for 1st Class (2 carriages).
