What are the Train Classes & Prices of Thai Railway?
Depending on the length of your trip and your preferences you can choose a first or second class ticket in a sleeper coach for an overnight trip or opt for a hard or soft seat if available. Note that the choice of ticket classes depends both on the route and the length of your trip. Basically, your train may feature first class berths but you will not be able to book one if you are doing just a short two-hour stretch. In general, second class berths are a good choice for longer trips, and soft seats get you covered if your train ride is supposed to take under 4-5 hours.
Pros & Cons of Train Travel
Pros of Train Travel
- The best thing about railway travel is no traffic jams. Even on rush-hour, long weekends or during the high season
- An easy online booking process – you do not need to go to the railway station, which was the case in many places not so long ago!
- Prices for train tickets are usually more affordable compared to airplane tickets yet for certain destinations and trips the total travel time can be almost the same
- While rail travel is obviously slower than air travel, railway stations are often located in the centre of the city which saves you a sack of time getting to/from there while airports are almost always are quite a long way out of the city
- Travelling by night allows you to save on a hotel room and sleep well at the same time – opposite to a night bus where even the sleeping class is a huge compromise
- On certain routes luxury service is available
Cons of Train Travel
- For longer trips a train ride is definitely more time consuming than air journeys
- Trains do ride on schedule but being out of schedule is not unheard of for train travel – and delays can be huge, so if you are planning a connection to your flight, carefully check the time your train arrives at the station and think twice.
- Cleanliness is sometimes an issue with second and third class tickets, and with toilets, too.
- If your train makes a lot of stops, in some cases it is difficult to figure out when to get off as stops are not always clearly announced or marked with the exception of an electronic screen.

Yudelka TThe train was very fast, and we arrived on time. Unfortunately, it wasn’t possible to darken the upper bunk properly, so the person sleeping there was exposed to the train’s lights throughout the journey.

Elisabeth WAt 5.00 we had to wake up, so I was standing next to the bed waiting to get it changed into seats but the gay in the lower bed was sitting on the bed with closed curtains so the operator didn't change the bed into seats.
As there was no comunication about the stations and could not look outside I had no clue where we were
Train#14 2nd Class Sleeper AC, Thai Railway (การรถไฟแห่งประเทศไทย), Oct 30, 2026

David WThe trip was booked as an experience - and it was certainly that.
An overly officious little man in uniform refused to let my 14yr old daughter swap with a passenger (who was happy to do so) so we could be next to each other, the same man, then separated a married couple for the same reason when there were spaces available.
Why the icky company insists on splitting up customer who book more than 1 ticket when there are available seats/bed together is beyond me.
Then not to show common sense, any decent level of customer service, humanity or politeness was just unforgivable.
Flying is more expensive and far quicker - at least then the pain is over quickly if the service is poor...
This was death by a thousand cuts for 12 hrs.
Would NOT recommend this service as long as the customer care remains at these levels.

Vera NIt was not possible to sleep as the very bright lights were on all night. The horrendous smell from the toilets came through the carriage continuously. It'd better to book the sleeper train but the tickets are always sold out unless you book 2-3 weeks in advance, so I suggest taking a bus if you need a ticket last minute.

A Q
Afiya QComfortable ride at an affordable price. The train started on time but ran 1.5 hours late; I was told that this service usually runs late as they don’t account for border control. So don’t plan any flight or anything time sensitive on the same afternoon.
The lights stay on all night and you must bring your eye masks and travel pillows. It’s extremely cold inside the coach, but blankets are provided onboard so that was an added bonus. The washrooms got dirty real quick; I recommend bringing your own bidets and wet wipes for convenience.
The immigration process at Nong Khai railway station was smooth and seamless. Luggage can be left onboard when getting off for immigration as the same train continues to Vientiane.

Christopher B2nd Class AC car. Only one door for ingress/egress so if you are all the way to the front of the car with a heavy bag, you have to lug it all the way to the rear.
Very small area in the car to store bags that will not fit in the very narrow overhead area.Maybe two bags for 88 passengers.
Snack callouts aloud every five minutes in Thai. Annoying.
Seats were hard and uncomfortable. Windows were dirty so not great for sightseeing or photography.
Train was 45 minutes late getting into Hua Hin from Surat Thani.
I did not engage 12Go support. There was no issue with 12Go. The online ticketing process was quick and painless.

Chollada LI booked my train ticket online in advance, expecting to have a reasonable seat for the journey. However, the seat was randomly assigned, and I was given a seat right next to the restroom.
The journey from the departure station to the final destination took around 12 hours, which made the experience quite uncomfortable. I understand that seats may be assigned automatically, but for such a long journey, passengers should have the option to select their preferred seats when booking online.
Unfortunately, this experience makes me hesitate to book train tickets in advance again. I hope the booking system can be improved in the future to provide passengers with more flexibility in choosing their seats.

While some say, that trains in Thailand are old, and perhaps doesn't have a shiny polished look, I'd say that's was a cozy and relaxing experience.

Anastasia VTrain was punctual, stuff spoke a bit of English, not very friendly but helpful. The bedsheets were already laid out. The blanket was as in a plastic bag, sealed, but it didn’t smell clean. They leave the white bright light on the whole night, but at least you have a curtain to close yourself off. Comfortable ladder to climb up. You had two toilets in the wagon, a sitting one and a squatting one, with toilet paper, and the sink had a soap for washing your hands.

Vladimir SThe train has come and departed on time. The boarding process has been organized well, and it was easy to find the boarding zone at the station, even being a foreigner, who came late before boarding and has been in a hurry. The train itself is not new, however the seats are clean, you could recline the seat, there's retractable stand for the legs and overall enough space even if you're of a hulky build.
