Bangkok's Skytrian serves 25 stations in key locations around town,
allowing passengers to leapfrog busy traffic intersections.
There are two separate railway lines: One from the northern
bus terminal at Morchit to Sukhumvit Soi 77 (Soi Onnut ).
The other from the National Stadium (near Pathumwan Intersection
to Taksin Bridge at the end of Sathorn Road. The two line
meet at the busy Siam Center where passengers can switch from
one line to another.
Stations
The typical station consists of two levels - concourse and
platform. The concourse provides ticketing facilities and
other passenger amenities as well as access to the system.
The platform is for waiting, boarding and alighting from
the train. Please be aware that the train may approach the
platform anytime, from any direction.
Trains
Our trains are designed to high international standards.
Doors open / close automatically. Beeper sounds will warn
you when the doors are about to close. If standing please
stand clear of the door's at all times.
Track
Stay away from the track and electrified rails. Pay attention
to all warning signs. Trespassing onto the track area can
cause severe injury to yourself or others.
