No. 51: Bangkok to Chiang Mai
This is Express No. 51 sleeper train that goes from Bangkok to Chiang Mai overnight. There are 2nd and 3rd Class seats with fans and 2nd Class sleeper carriages with air-conditioning. This train leaves Krung Thep Aphiwat Central Terminal much later in the evening than other sleepers at 10:30 p.m. and so it arrives in Northern Thailand as the sun is rising. This means you get to see more of the beautiful scenery. In particular from Den Chai to Lamphun. However, the train arrives in Chiang Mai in the middle of the day at 12:10 p.m. which means you miss half the day. The other sleepers arrive first thing in the morning. The return journey is made by Express No. 52.
