Short Distance / Commuter - Passengers for Bangkok-Area Commuter Trains usually start their Train Trips at Thonburi (Bangkok Noi) Rail Station. These Trains are 'Short-Distance' and only go to destinations within a 2-hour commute. Many of the Stations are cities inside the Greater Bangkok Metropolitan Area or not far outside. Commuter Trains in the Bangkok Area (All Trird-Class) resemble 'Subway Cars' with plastic seats and ceiling hand straps for standing passengers. Many of the destinations on Thai Railways Western and East Coast Lines are considered 'Short-Distance' Trips.
