It's good, but the carriages would need better soundproofing against engine noise.

I had accidentally booked the wrong week - but the staff at Hua Hin train station very extremely helpful and transferred my tickets to the correct. Train journey to Chumphon was through a mass of green forests, paddy fields and mountains.

Easy booking. Railway staff helped me to find my seat. Nice breeze inside the train as it was night time and the windows were open.

On time. Comfortable temperature (air con with fans). Electric outlets in the first and last seats if you need to charge up. Squat toilets only is the biggest downside.

There were 3 of us travelling and we were all seated separately instead of together. That should not happen
