While I was waiting for my train to Saraburi and Ayutthaya for some sight seeing, a local was interested in my taking photos of various things around the station, and tried to explain to me that this station is very old, and that would be evidenced by the steel used in the construction of the building have a year rolled into it while being made.
Some of the steel beams had 1890, and some had 1903.

"Travel from Muak Lek to Ayutthaya by trains
"Thai trains are rarely on time. They usually leave on time from the line departure city and always accumulate a more or less important delay. Train is the cheapest transportation in Thailand. You can book your tickets in advance online ( (visit link) ). For sleepers in overnight trains, it is strongly advised to book at least 8 days in advance. For 3rd class tickets is not necessary to book in advance but know that you will not get a specific seat and depending of the passengers number you may not be sitting. But traveling in third class in Thai trains is an experience to live for its atmosphere.
