SRT4001BKK |
| Description: |
In a sad looking condition, SRT 4001 readys her train to leave Bangkok Central station in this 2013 photo. [One of my very first contributions to the RRPA website!] I was very lucky to find her, as this is the class engine in her series and is among the oldest still operating class of power on the SRT. This nearly 50 year old GE is a model UM12C which is a cousin to our WP&Y shovelnoses, having 2 660 hp engines which make a delightful chortle as they bustle about. She is in very faded but original paint. |

50 years old and she's got it goin on! |
| Description: |
Freshly painted and low numbered UM12C 4005 waits to start another run out of Hua Lamphong Station. After getting this photo the engineer came back into the cab and instantly put her from idle to run 9, either to do a load test or air up fast: she responded flawlessly and made an awesome sound show heard throughout the station! |

SRT4007TKS |
| Description: |
From the lens of Ms. Sarnt, this is the 'classic' postcard view of a train on the Tham Kra Sae viaduct. It is the first train of the day, crossing at the still sleepy but relatively 'cool' hour of 6:11 am. This train is inbound to Bangkok and before crossing sounded off, waking us up! |

| Description: |
A nice surprise was to find the 4017 powering this move as one of our Brakemen call out moves to the engineer. They have coupled this cut of containers to the coaches 4214 dropped, officially making this a mixed freight. 4017's Burachatra shows nicely in this photo! . |

Oil Bath! |
| Description: |
In urgent need of major TLC, SRT UM12C 4022 scurries about switching cars at Hua Lamphong Station. The poor thing was running fine, either she was next to another unit which had a spectacular fail, someone missed the mark fueling up, or she 'soiled' herself ['ouch!' -4022's a GE after all!]. I photo'd her on Dec. 5 sans those nasty oil stains! |

SRT 4023W pass Pha Sadet memorial |
| Description: |
Just 1/2 mile downhill of Pha Sadet station is this memorial at the end of the road and valley. There is a parking area and a short walk takes guests to this viewing patio, while another path crosses the tracks to the memorial on the opposite side. Just out of view to the left is a small shrine for those who wish to pay respects. We were alerted to this light return helper movement by a soft crossing chime which sounded about 45 seconds before anything showed, a great safety consideration and prepatory notice for Guests who linger here. I took the photo a bit prematurely in order to get the memorial in and not blocked out. This rock was left in place when the line was built through here in 1895 and may have been minimally cut to clear train sides. The then King and Queen of Siam [HRH's Rama 5] had a residence near here and inscribed thier names on the rock, thus turning it into a place of notability. |

A 'best i can get shot', SRT GE UM12C 4023 drifts downhill into a virtual jungle after just having passed Pha Sadet rock. She is returning light to Kang Khoi after having assisted with a heavy eastbounder. The concrete post reads; 'Limit of Shunt' or, in plain US English; 'Yard Limit'!

A detail look at the 4036 from very low angle..this is the mid afternoon train just as she is about to cross the viaduct. Hidden out of sight just behind the engine is the Tham Kra Sae 'depot' -just a platform and a shelter for the tiny village here. Her 2 660hp engines are happily chortling along attest the open caps on the roofline! |

Recent news from SRT is that these UM 12's days may be numbered, as there is an order of new locos from China which will replace the series. They make a wonderful chant as they buzz about, too! |
