The Thai trains are conducting a series of test to determine if their trains are safe and will pass the railway safety 5 star crash ratings test.

So far there has been success with Toyota Vios small category car.

Today we have proven another success with a pick up truck.

There will be more tests to come. As always, we value the safety of our passengers. The tests will not delay the customers time as, once the impact has occur, we will not stop, but continue on our journey at the same speed. Do not worry about being late on your destination.

Thank you!
