Are trains currently operating in Thailand, specifically to Surat Thani?
Everything else question here:
Does anyone know if trains are operating at the moment? Need to go to surat Thani.Hua lamphong is closed (?) and I can’t find any information about departures from bang sue central station… Thai railways website is also not helpful.
Thanks in advance & stay safe.

I got the train to Hua Hin last week. Contrary to web-sites, I couldn't get it from Hualamphong or Bang Sue, I had to go to Bang Bamru station. Suggest you check at a station the day b4 travel in case of mote changes.

I just returned from Hua lamphong. They still run the ticket office and some trains depart from there. If somebody here wants to drive to surat Thani by train. The departure station here in Bangkok is bang bamru.Martin *************
