BANGKOK TRAIN TO KANCHANABURI THAILAND THONBURI STATION

Thonburi Railways Station in Bangkok, also known as Bangkok Noi
To Kanchanaburi by train only 100 Thai Baht. The train leaves Bangkok twice a day. 7.55am & 1.55pm Platform one. The journey takes around 2 hours 30 mins. It is a 3rd class journey with wooden seats, no air con, & open windows. Be sure to take on board some water as it gets hot. Refreshments are brought on board half way through the train ride. All in all a great little experience. I would definitely do it again.
I hope you enjoyed the movie. if so, please share with all your friends, & family.
if you would like to give a little something back for all my hard work, and information?
There is now a way to help out towards costs of videos.
As you probably appreciate, they take a lot of my time and effort.
Thank you very much in advance.

Nice one Geoff, bet you had a cold chang deli chang chang after that ride.

[@lyndonbarber1241]

Great video look forward to the next one😊😊😊

[@tjmctube]

Nice video Geoff. I especially liked the views of the countryside from the train. I remember back in the mid 90s taken a 3rd class from Khon Kaen to Nong Khai with my wife and 4 year-old. Even rougher wooden seats at that time. One thing the video can't capture with regard to those open/missing windows are the smells of the rural countryside. Foremost to me was the smell of smoke. Cooking, burning rubbish, burning brush.

[@daque1960]

Nice old style train. Thank you for posting.

[@Montreal288]

You are number 1! Thanks

[@CuddleMex]

Really helpful and informative thank you for this Geoff!

[@BazW192]

A brilliant vid Geoff, when I did Kanchanaburi last Sept from Pattaya for 2 nights, the trip cost me 4000 baht including a few trips, may do it again this year, but your way, far cheaper, will you be in Pattaya late sept/Oct, would love to buy you a chang..

[@sanjeevlimbu]

Awesome buddy .. Iam also a regular backpacker and never believe in these publicly post vdos. But your number makes me like woowww.. U gave every details of travel in a natural way.. Kudos .. Subscribed n became ur fan . M moving tomorrow

[@Boddav]

A great trip.I took the Sky Train to the station closest to Thonburi and then got a taxi. Saved a lot of time.

[@standavis5096]

Great vid Geoff, Hope you find your way to VN Guesthouse. You will love it..

[@bootlegger1974]

Eat your heart out michael palin love it geoff

[@SABAI15]

Shared mate, Awesome video as usual. Did you end up getting your Pepsi? That was hilarious.

[@ronlovesfood]

I got there by car, if I know your video early i would go there by train.

[@michaelmeier9655]

Once we drove from Kanchanaburi to my girlfriend's sister, 80 kilometers to the north. She and her daughter didn't have to pay anything for the ticket ( there are certain months where the travel is free for Thais). Of course I had to pay the 100 baht lol³ . Thanks for the video. :)

[@SoiBuakhaoRoutemasterbus]

Thonburi station as is, wasn't the end of the line originally, but was Bangkok Noi. The original Thonburi was around half a mile further on, right on the river front. The station building survives and i think is a museum, there's an old demic steam loco outside.....

[@jimeadie8139]

Hope you enjoyed the countryside, I have done that trip twice from Kanchanaburi, 100baht, can't beat it 😎

[@Stokielad_Ed]

Nice one Geoff. If you are still there, make sure you go onto the Aussie memorial beyond the end of the line at the Hellfire Pass Memorial Museum. Beautiful and moving place, just get a taxi from the end of the line.

[@barrydives]

I agree Ed,, it is an exceptional experience; except it isnt just an Aussie thing...UK, Dutch, Thai and not forgetting the East Island soldiers.

[@davideddolls4738]

Excellent vlog Geoff I think I would of preferred your mode of transport, I did the trip 10 years ago with mr t taxi. Thanks Geoff.

[@pb2067]

Good one Geoff its great fun on those old Trains just dont get carried away sticking your head out of the window could get decapitated 5555 ... also you got to admire Thai pricing sometimes cost me 120baht from BKK to Pattaya on a aircon bus then baht bus drivers want 150baht to take you 1 mile down road to your hotel 5555

[@larryburn2950]

its good too see you out of pattay

[@thaibillyboy]

Check out Pong Pen guest houses next to the river while your there Geoff, big room cheap prices and great views.

[@russweaver1454]

nice one Geoff, CHOOOOO CHOOO ! {Hope you got your pepsi in the end LOL }

[@gkprivate433]

[@kenboon1478]

Should have carried on to Nam tok the scenery is beautiful as well as the memorable train ride along death railway and a visit to hellfire pass .

[@chrisbooth7696]

Brilliant vlogg Geoff..i did that journey years ago....thats what Thailands all about...the adventures. Keep it up mate ☺

[@soitvthailand]

GREETING'S FROM SUNNY SA KEWO FELLA ..HOPE WE WILL BE SEEING U AND JAM COOKING ON THIS TRIP....JUP JUP HUGS FROM ME&YIM 5555

[@chandlerbingbong]

keep smilin' folks

[@SoiBuakhaoRoutemasterbus]

The easy way from Sukhumvit to Thonburi is to get the blue Underground MRT line to Bang Khun Non, for probably around 50 Bhat. From there its a 5 min walk to Thonburi, or wait at the Thonburi line platforms next door to the MRT line station, and jump on your train there...... You save yourself best part of a tenner......

[@mikecraven6993]

Another great video geoff. I went to koh chang after seeing your videos and it really is a beautiful place. Back again in April for songkran (I really enjoy the songkran atmosphere) and will look at a trip to kanchanaburi. When are you next over any chance of you been there in April? Changs on me if you are 😃
