The New Life Speed
of Mobility
Solidifying the basic infrastructure of the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC), the high-speed rail route linking three major airports is guaranteed to ease travel and foster faster inter-provincial and regional transport connectivity. In comparison with other travel methods, this mega railway project can significantly reduce travel times and operating costs by using the structures and rail lines of the Airport Rail Link system currently in service. Both extended rail lines spanning a total distance of 220 kilometers from Phaya Thai station to Don Mueang Airport and from Lad Krabang station to U-Tapao International Airport will also be included in this project, with airport connections. It will also link Bangkok to the EEC area with a travel time of less than one hour.

High Speed Technology
Aero Dynamic Design
A high-speed train design emphasizes aerodynamics or air resistance when high-speed trains pass one another in opposite directions or through tunnels at high velocity. The aerodynamic drag must be kept as low as possible in order to protect high-speed trains from external air pressure fluctuations and to ensure passenger comfort and safety to the extent exposure to the impact of these air pressure fluctuations does not occur. Passengers will be offered maximum comfort and convenience. In addition to developing high-speed trains, several nations are trying their utmost to invent lightweight materials for the construction of high-speed train components in an attempt to save the energy used to move trains from track to track.
Safety standards with standardized European train signaling systems
The European Train Control System (ETCS) Level 2 increases travel safety with standardized European train signaling systems capable of controlling rail routes through the use of a wireless GSM signal. These systems can identify locations, movement directions, and train-track speed limits. The ETCS will operate hand-in-hand with speed control systems: activating an automatic train stop and communicating with stations. The technology employed by each station will control rail routes for trains to move at varying speeds within a permitted range for safety reasons.
Why
High Speed?
- FFast Every bit of time is of value. High-speed trains are guaranteed to reduce travel times and enable everyone to commute with incredible comfort and speed.
- AAccurate High-speed trains offer punctuality and reliability in every important journey with train performance metrics measured in second intervals using the railway signaling systems that meet global standards.
- SSafe High-speed trains offer maximum safety and mitigate road accidents. They are administered 24/7, offering a hiccup-free travel experience.
- TTrusted Technology High-speed trains inspire confidence in every single journey, as they are powered by the world-class, environment-friendly technology.
