After catastrophic flooding in the area caused the tracks to be damaged, all southern trains may resume normal service on Thursday, causing their final stop at Hat Yai station.

Governor of the State of Thailand Veeris Ammarapala announced on Monday that all night show and swift trains departing from Bangkok to Yala and Sungai Kolok channels on Wednesday will start operating as far as Sungai Kolok depot in Narathiwat state on Thursday.

Employees are repairing the lines in Pattani and Yala, which were ruined by the floods that ravaged Songkhla and Narathiwat, respectively.

Due to the flooding, Hat Yai’s coach companies were forced to end there for safety.
