A few Videos of my Local train service

This is a couple of videos showing an SRT commuter train running with the doors wide open.

These trains operate with the carriage doors open on most trains this was taken between Bang Bon and Wat Sing stations. This is due to the doors being damaged at some point.

1. Taken on an SRT train between Bang Bon and Wat Sing stations during the off peak. The doors on both sides where broken.

2. Taken on an SRT train between Wong Wian Yai and Talat Phlu Stations. This train is an early peak hour train so its getting busy now. This train also has a broken door.

This is very normal for this line and this train company. The annoying and pointless OHS people in the USA and australia will go mad at this company and its trains. But its really not an issue.

Very very cool. The only commuter train I've ridden on was CalTrain, which goes from the city of San Francisco to the city of San Jose, one long line, but from the train stations you can get most places you have to on the Peninsula by walking, or taking a bus, cab, etc.

On my last day in that area, I took the CalTrain into SF, then hopped a cab to an address, I thought it was a lot further away, paid some state tax off in a gov't office, then took a trolley to Fisherman's Wharf, touristed around a bit and had some fried shrimp, then took the bus back to CalTrain and home. So that was train, cab, trolley, bus, then train again. Quite a full day lol!

That's one thing I like about the Bay Area I must confess, you really don't need a car. If you're a bicycle enthusiast, you really 0wn the place.
