Moving almost half of all long-haul train services from Hua Lamphong Station to Krung Thep Abhiwat Central Terminal will help the country realise its goal of turning the terminal into the biggest rail hub in Southeast Asia, says deputy government spokeswoman Rachada Dhnadirek.
The government also hopes that moving long-distance passenger train services to the terminal, formerly known as Bang Sue Grand Station, will cut back on trains passing level crossings and solve the traffic problem in Bangkok and neighbouring areas, she said on Tuesday.
