Yala is located in the 'deep' south of Thailand, and it possesses a train station. At the main entrance to the station building, at ground level, is a public clock. The clock is not the most elaborate I have seen, but it is functional and easily seen.
ADVISORY: For the last few years and decades there has been an ongoing insurgency in the Muslim populated provinces of Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat (the 'deep south' of Thailand). An average of 600 people (out of a pop. of 1.6 million) have been killed per year between 2004-9. The Australian government strongly urges its citizens not to visit these provinces: "do not travel". Having said all of this there is no blood on the streets, and life goes on normally for the vast majority of people. You have been advised.
