Another Train Journey from Hell
We left our hotel at 3pm Friday. The train left on time at 4.30pm. Had dinner and a few drinks and went to bed. At 3.40am we were woken up and told we had to get off the train. There had been a crash further up the line and we had to continue by bus. It was a local bus with no air-con, full of exhaust fumes. Lovely. After about an hour we arrived at another train station and caught another train. Sleep over. Arrived in Bangkok 2pm Saturday. Caught the next train to Cha-am 3.30pm. Arrived in Cha-am 8pm. As we traveled 3rd class our carriage didn't reach the platform. Everyone behind us was telling us to jump, about 4 feet onto the railway line. Had to walk up the track to the platform, thats what you get for not paying for 2nd class. Finally arrived home after 29.50 hours traveling, so our flight to UK should be a doddle.
