Weekend in Chachoengsao (part 2d: return to Bangkok)
There are two train stations in CCS.
Chachoengsao Junction is the main train station, in walking distance to the bus
station. Paed Riew is a bit more central, but consists only of two benches with
a roof and a sign with the name. I didn’t see anyone at that station.
Ticket to Hua Lampong is 13 Baht
(thirteen!). When I see the train coming into the station, it doesn’t look that
I will be getting a seat. I am correct. I have to spend most of the trip
standing. Positive thinking: instead of getting angry for not getting a seat, I
congratulate myself to my acumen to assess the situation correctly before the
train even reached the station. Schedule is 15:34 to 17:15, reality is 15:38 to
17:25, the most punctual train I remember in Thailand. This train is not on the
timetable distributed in Hua Lampong, nor did I find it on timetables on the
internet.
There are some interesting sites left
in CCS (I didn’t know about them before my trip), and I want to meet the
Camfrog boy and the Grindr boy. If time permits, I will go back for another
weekend.
