What to Pack Before Embarking?

- Blanket or Warm Clothes: AC on Thai trains can be powerful! Pack a light blanket, shawl, cardigan, or a warm pair of socks to stay comfortable, especially on overnight journeys.
- Snacks and Drinks are Key: While some trains have vendors or dining cars, it's always a good idea to bring your own snacks and drinks, especially for longer journeys. This ensures you have something you like on hand and can save money.
- Eye Mask and Earplugs: Even if you're not planning on sleeping, these can be incredibly helpful for blocking out light and noise, especially on overnight trains or in busier carriages.
- Portable Charger: Outlets can be unreliable or unavailable on some trains. A fully charged portable charger will keep your devices running, so you can stay entertained or keep in touch.
- Download Entertainment: Load up your phone or tablet with movies, music, or e-books before you go. Wi-Fi isn't always available or reliable on Thai trains.
- Small Padlock: If you're traveling with luggage on an overnight train, a small padlock can secure your bag to the overhead rack or luggage storage area for added peace of mind.
- Wet Wipes or Hand Sanitizer: These are useful for freshening up, especially if you're traveling in a shared compartment or after eating.
- Check the Train Schedule in Advance: Double-check the train schedule and platform information at the station, as delays or changes can occur.
