    Sophon, welcome back with more steam reporting! Is there a reason why the railroad places the two steam locomotives back to back? Good to see you were a rider rather than just taking photos along the track. :tb-biggrin:

    Yes,from Bangkok to Ayuttaya and back.

    The reason why SRT put the locos back-to-back is there is no wye or turntable at Ayuttaya.

    Now back on to the show.

    tourists waits for boarding

    Kevsmith, Do you still remember this thing (Class 158)?

    and another cement train rumbled thru the plant

    After a lunch I still have fun railfanning

    [​IMG]

    Squeeze it a little more

    [​IMG]

    Train 209 (Ordinary, Bangkok-Ban Takhli) checks in

    [​IMG]

    The loco you see here has a little story: SRT #4218 was involved in an accident when she hit a mudslide and fell into river; the engine crew died in the line of duty. after months of TLC and labor from Makkasan shop, she's now back in action.
