290 m. The State Railway of Thailand (SRT) announced it’s all aboard the ticketing express at the opening of the new elevated station which is on track for partial operations on Monday, December 11. As outlined in the State Railway of Thailand (SRT) announcement on November 17, the initial phase of the station’s opening will focus on ticketing services. Additional facilities, such as retail spaces and other station amenities, are scheduled to open gradually over the coming months. A notable advantage of the new dual track line is the reduced travel time between Hua Hin and Bangkok, now estimated to be approximately three hours, marking a substantial improvement over current travel times.
