Imagine yourself whisked away on an enchanting train journey, where the rhythm of the tracks provides the soundtrack to an unforgettable romantic adventure. Mr. Ekarat Sriarayanphong, the esteemed Public Relations chief of the State Railway of Thailand (SRT), has recently unveiled an exclusive, limited-seating travel experience that’s sure to capture the hearts of wanderlust enthusiasts.

The SRT’s calendar is blossoming with amorous escapades set to traverse the picturesque landscapes of Thailand. Take note, lovebirds and adventure-seekers, here’s what’s available:

• Savor the charm of Chachoengsao on a one-day jaunt scheduled for the 3rd and 4th of February. A ticket to courtship under the skies will cost just 1,499 baht per person.
• Ride into the sunset on a two-day sojourn to Kanchanaburi, gripping you from the 10th to the 11th of February for 3,999 baht per person—an overnight affair to reminisce.
• Or perhaps a day trip to Lopburi on the 17th and 18th of February resonates with your soul, also charmingly priced at 1,499 baht per person.

Now, let’s feed your curiosity about the chariots that will carry you through these mesmerizing terrains—the illustrious KIHA trains. In the early throes of 2022, Japan’s Hokkaido Railway Company graced SRT with a magnificent donation: 17 KIHA 183 passenger train carriages, icons of their craft, now refurbished and ready to roll out on Thailand’s premier tourism routes, following SRT’s coverage of the 42.5 million baht shipment cost.

These steel steeds once conquered the frosty frontiers of northern Japan at speeds touching 110kmph, crafted meticulously to weather the assaulting blizzards. The KIHA 183 carriages come equipped with elevated driver’s cabs, granting the locomotive pilots an eagle-eyed view over the winter’s white veil. And let’s not overlook the legendary “slant nose”—more than just a striking visual trademark, it’s an ingenious design to rebuff the snow’s embrace as the train carves its path.

So, what awaits you is more than a mere journey; it’s a tapestry of culture, comfort, cuisine, and charm—all woven together by the steady hands of the SRT, ready to transport you to a realm of romantic exploration. Don’t miss your chance to be part of this thrilling locomotive legacy!
