The State Railway Workers’ Union has rejected the plan to close all train services at Hua Lamphong Station.
Suwit Kaewwan, president of The State Railway Workers’ Union (SRWU), lodged a petition letter with Transport Minister Saksayam Chidchob. The letter says thousands of commuters would be affected if all train services to Hua Lamphong Station closed this November as planned. “The SRWU disagrees with the idea that all train routes to Hua Lamphong should end. We would rather see a few routes being kept in service to reduce the impact on commuters,” he told the media.
