The train is too old, the speed is too slow, the noise is too loud, there is no air conditioner and even some fans are broken, the train is dirty, and there is no Chinese broadcast at the station.

Could have been 5 stars if it wasn't for the sod flying in the open windows and doors several times during my trip. Burning the fields I guess. Trying to close the shutters doesn't work, cause many of these cannot. But overall fine trip. Look forward th Ubon-BKK as my next :-) Again - hard copy of ticket needed. Unfortunally...
