FAQ
Is there a direct train from Surat Thani to Phitsanulok?
No. You change trains once, in Bangkok, and book each train as a separate ticket.
What is the fastest way from Surat Thani to Phitsanulok by train?
Take EX86 at 19:31, change in Bangkok and continue on SP7. The whole trip takes about 16h 17m, including 1h 20m to change trains.
What is the cheapest train from Surat Thani to Phitsanulok?
From about 394 THB per adult in total, on RP174 and RP111 in the cheapest available class.
How much time should I leave to change trains?
At least one hour at the same station. Long-distance trains, especially from the south, are often late, so a wait of 2–3 hours is safer. If you change between Hua Lamphong and Krung Thep Aphiwat in Bangkok, allow extra time to cross the city.
