BANGKOK, 13 February 2014 (NNT) – The skytrain operator is set to begin an early service for commuters on a trial basis next month, following a slew of suggestions from the public.

Bangkok Mass Transit System (BTS) chief operating officer Surapong Laoha-unya said the special service will go on a trial run from March 1 onwards. The new service offers passengers the chance to board the train before its usual operating hour at 6 am.

The first train will leave Mor Chit and Bearing stations at 5.15 am. Trains on the Silom Line will meanwhile depart at 5.30 am. Those who wish to use the service before 6 am are advised to use their Sky Smartpass or Rabbit Card to board the train as one-time passes are not available.
