Bangkok to Surat Thani Train Station Destination Reviews

JS
Train was clean, comfortable. AC working. Only I have not space for my bag. It was on the floor in front of the seat. So not much space for my leg.

In itself okay so just a normal train and you get a blanket, but next time I would take a bus. Despite the blanket it was ultra cold and very shaky

It's really nice to just relax and sleep while traveling. They could be better about notifying passengers when they've arrived at a stop. Overall for the price, a great way to go long distance.

Hope that you don't het the very first seats in the compartment as they have cramped leg space and the train horn is too loud.

Everything perfect except the air conditioning, which is really too loud. I think the fans are enough for an overnight trip.

The Service was really nice and helpful! The train was on time. The seats were okay! You have space and you’re able to lean back. We had second class seats. We would definitely recommend to book a sleeping place, because we couldn’t sleep at all. From Bangkok to Surat Thani we bearly slept. The bright lights are on all night long! So that’s really tough. It’s really loud and In the night it can get cold. If you choose to take second class seats in a night train be prepared.

Seats are not that comfortable. Train stops almost at every station making it difficult to sleep for long journey
