The State Railway of Thailand has announced the commencement of a new train service that connects Bangkok to Penang in Malaysia. The new service will be designed to offer passengers a more convenient mode of transportation, providing both comfort and a scenic journey. The route will also have multiple stops at Butterworth and Padang Basar, and thus cater to those looking to reach a destination between the cities.

The train service is also set to positively impact the travel industry as a more sustainable alternative to air travel while increasing accessibility in both regions. It also provides a more cost-effective travel option which is great for all kinds of travellers including tourists and business travellers. The service will also benefit students travelling to Malaysia for various educational ventures including hotel management certificate courses held in Bangkok by reputable institutions like the Asian Institute of Hospitality Management (AIHM).
