Bangkok's Hua Lamphong Station |
Description: |
The 'Grand Central Station' of Thailand, this is the front/main facade of Hua Lamphong Station 'after hours'. A brief lull in traffic made things look later than the approximately 8 pm time of this photo. This was on Dec. 5th, HRH King Rama 9's birthday, so there may have been some extra lighting on the station..we had just wrapped up a swell evening of Steam Special Service photography. |

Standard Lantern Switch Stand used by SRT. This photo was taken at dusk and shows details lost in the following night photos. These stands seem to be very old desighns and were probably retrofitted from originally gas/kerosene lighting systems. @Hua Lamphong station's staging yard. |

Hua Lamphong after dark.. |
Description: |
4109 has backed up her train to the platform and now waits for boarding before heading out the evening of Dec. 5th. We had to work without the benefit of a tripod, so it was either hold very still or brace against something to get these shots.. |

Hua Lamphong after dark.. |
Description: |
AD24C No. 4204 is from the second order for this model, built in 1980. SRT has given each of the 4 order series a slightly different paint job to differentiate between them. Here 4204 has pulled her train into the station and will back out empty after a quick car service. |

Hua Lamphong after dark.. |
Description: |
1983 built AD24C No. 4307 waits for a car service before backing her train out from the platform. This unit is kind of a rarity, as out of the 113 AD24's SRT took delivery of, the 1983 built 4300 series only comprised 9 units. They were likely a 'fill in' order to replace units which were prematurely retired..SRT would complete thier AD24 run with 20 more units ordered in 1985. |
