Chumphon to Bangkok Destination Reviews

I've always had great experiences on the trains in Thailand, I love them. This time I booked the sleeper bed (I usually buy 2nd class sleeper fan which I hundred per cent recommend). First of all the train was 1h 30 min late, the bed carriage felt like a fridge: cold and humid and it smelled weird, like humidity. The beds felt moist because of the humidity in the air. Needles to say I barely slept. So I payed extra for "sleeping" in a poorly ventilated fridge. The 2nd class seater fan carriage is way better.

Lots of noise every stop so you wake up about every hour and from about 5 am almost every stop there were vendors boarding the train and trying to sell stuff. Bathroom was really stinky too Besides that the bed was fine and we got a clean mattress and pillow with a blanket and the staff and conductors were nice :)

Train was 1 hour late and arrived 4 hours late to Bangkok. Sleeper seats ok, nice to be on horizontal position on a 12 hours trip. Quite noisy night but exciting experience for all of us. Maby train 170 is a slower- one. Train was full so we got sleeper beds around one van. Kids are already teenagers so this wasn't a problem.

2nd class night train does the job, but I'd recommend anyone to book 1st class if they can for a better night's sleep! Booking on 12goasia and receiving the PDF tickets in minutes made the whole trajectory a lot easier.

How to get from Chumphon to Bangkok by Train

Taking a train to get from Chumphon to Bangkok is a safe, fast, and scenic option to travel the country. On certain routes, there are multiple train departures per day every 10 to 15 minutes. This is typical for intercity travel, while for long distance train routes there are fewer scheduled departures – plan ahead to choose the one that fits your itinerary best.

For long distance train journeys, we recommend reserving your tickets at least a few days ahead of your travel date. Buying train tickets via our online booking system will allow you to choose and reserve the best Chumphon to Bangkok tickets.

Buying your tickets online will help you secure the trip on the selected date and avoid queuing at the station.. When travelling on weekends and holidays it is recommended to reserve tickets much earlier due to a much higher demand. During high season, train tickets sell out quickly – do book as early as you can.

How long does it take to get from Chumphon to Bangkok by Train?

Travel time from Chumphon to Bangkok is estimated to be about 6h 47m. Trains ensure the fastest time to travel by land. As normally there is no congestion, the speed of travel is more or less constant and stops at train stations are rather short, train is almost always one of the quickest and safest ways to get from Chumphon and Bangkok.

The most important thing that may affect train travel time is the type of train. Ordinary trains travel at a speed of about 40 mph or 65 km/h to 65 mph or 105 km/h. Some intercity trains with shorter distances between stations run slower than 40 mph. Even with these low speeds, it can still be faster than commuting by car, bus or taxi.

The speed of express trains can reach up to 100 mph or 160 km/h. Modern high-speed trains can run at speeds exceeding 250 mph or 400 km/h.

These speeds of travel together with relatively short stops between stations can greatly shorten the duration of your trip.

Best-Rated Companies for this Route

Unlike buses or taxis which have numerous companies offering their services, train service is usually offered by just one major company in each country. As railway service requires a large amount of infrastructure, most railway companies are government-owned and are a part of the national transport system.

One of the best advantages of travelling by train is that railway stations are often conveniently located within or very near major cities and urban areas. Immediately on arrival to their destination, travellers find themselves in close proximity to important facilities like hotels, supermarkets, and hospitals.

If you travel with a lot of bags and luggage, trains are your best option. Luggage weight limits on trains are rather flexible and allow you to carry multiple bags with you.

Special or luxury trains feature sufficient legroom which allows you to stretch your legs and relax. In comfort and space these train seats can be compared to business class airplane seats.

Similar to buses, trains can provide a variety of amenities to make your travel more comfortable and enjoyable. Modern trains have WIFI service, a snack counter and a drinking bar. Onboard toilets can be a life saver for travellers with queasy stomachs.

Lastly, unlike buses and other overland means of transport, trains are very rarely involved in accidents.
