20:37 This is actually the old station for both the mainline to Padang Besar & the branch line to Tumpat before the arrival of the ETS to Gemas. Now both lines operate from the same station, with the train services serving the branch line operating from platforms 1 & 2 (mainly using the blue trains like the one you see at 21:47), & those serving the mainline like the ETS serving Platforms 3-6. 20:59 you are actually lucky! 😮 This train model is usually in use for the Business & Platinum Class ETS services, first manufactured in 2018. The usual trains for this service are manufactured in 2014. I guess the actual train had issues, they couldnt find a train replacement on time.😂

The locomotives on your Shuttle Tebrau ride in JB and the ES44 to Gemas are indeed very old, with the red colored locomotive manufactured in 1987. The one that hauled your shuttle tebrau was manufactured in 2002 as part of the 2nd batch of the same model first manufactured in 1990 (one of them at 13:23). But they are not the noisiest actually. The noisiest ones are actually the Power Generator carriage, which is the carriage directly hehind the red locomotive. Combine these 2 together and this is what you get. 🤣

Yes that one was very loud at Gemas! Thailand's locos are even older - from the 60s onwards although the last one (train 32) was hauled by a modern QSY.

TQ for sharing... very informative. Did u book/buy the tickets prior.. online... you must have had to plan your journey to fit in with the different schedules of the different trains... that wld be a lot of planning...
@willettsworld148129 минут бұрын
Yes bought them well in advance (apart from the Padang Besar to Hat Yai shuttle) cos I knew when the concert was in Singapore. The important one I really wanted to get was train 32 (Hat Yai to BKK) and the others fitted in before that.

Many thanks for posting this. I visited the Bang Pa In palace 53 years ago this week, and this brought back many memories. I was happy to see that it has changed little, other than some new plantings, since I was there. I remember particularly the Chinese throne pavilion and being impressed by the craftsmanship and especially by the beautiful floor of colorful tiles. Again, many thanks!

Yes but it affects some people more than others, healthwise. It really only affects me when I can't see far off in the distance or the blue sky looks more grey.

You pronounced Hua better than most foreigners. Hua Hin stands for Head Stone, and head is pronounced “Who-a”, but some people insist on the mandarin pronunciation of “Waa” which has no meaning in Thai. The town was named in the early 1900’s when farmers moved south because of a draught and thought the stones in the water looked like heads. Prior to that it was called “Row of Stones”.
@willettsworld1481 Жыл бұрын
I could've done better with my pronunciation! Put it down to there being a "Huay - who-way" in a road name here in Chiang Mai and it just got stuck in my head!
