Great and informative video. I have travelled on trains many times in Thailand and Malaysia. In summary, Thai trains are slow and repeatedly stop for unknown reasons. Malaysian trains are quick and efficient.

Great video mate. You have such a positive energy, even before 6am - makes me smile when I watch.

Hi Tom, May God bless you guiding you to Thailand. Awesome trip, train ride info is great! Watching your video is enjoying the moment (smile) Have the best of time in Thailand. From Chicago USA

Love the information contained within the journey..... Keep on going ! 👍🏼🙏🏼💯

I was in KL Sentral yesterday😀.. the fare in KL is amazingly cheap🎉

Great show Tom thank you for sharing. Have a great day

Always love your videos. Merry Christmas Tom

Kuala Lumpur is so clean at the early of morning

Clear explaination on the station guide. Thanks. I intend to travel to hatyai in few months time.

Really nice way to travel Tom and remember how nice it was when I went to France from Germany and back. Very modern, fast and comfortable way to travel for sure. In just two weeks will be back to the Phillipines for Christmas and really appreciate your videos especially today back to beautiful Thailand. Looking forward to your next. Best wishes from cold wet Melbourne this morning

What up Tom? Great videos. Great job.

bro i like how you present your content. keep it up!

Wow, Tom, i love this it's so exciting to see your train ride adventure 👍! All of a sudden I want to ride trains 😂😛. Perhaps look into traveling to Africa next.

Funny this video popped up. I wanted to take the train all the way from Kuala Lumpur to Bangkok a few weeks ago, but it was fully booked when I was in KL. In langkawi now heading home soon, maybe I'll try next time.

You are a very accomplished traveller. Thank you for sharing your smooth Journey. Your TV/table scene was funny 😂😂😊🤣

Hi. Thanks for sharing your experience. I certainly want to give the Business Class train ride from KL to Hat Yai a try. I tried the bus ride before. It was okay. Anyway, enjoy your travels! 😀

Nice and informative vlog Tom keep em coming

I like your solo trips. We wanna see more food spots and local interactions.

Train riding action .. interesting stamp your visa out .. see you on your next one .. watching from my Texas estate. 🇱🇷

Yes take the ferry to Kuala Perlis, then by taxi or grab to Arau train station, take the Komuter train service that serve the north block to Padang Besar. Buy the train to Hatyai ticket there (they don't sell it online).... But the train to Hatyai only depart twice daily from Padang Besar, so better check the train schedule or spend a night in pandang besar.

Hello Tom looks like a cool train ride have fun my friend stay safe God bless you

Great video ! Thanks 🙏

Thanks for the informative video. I am thinking of bringing my elderly parents for a trip from KL to HatYai. Now I am not so sure if going there by train is a better choice than by flight. Seems like there are a lot of stairs to walk especially at the Padang Besar station.

Same train to Penang, biz class they provide food, drinks

Love the high speed train, cheap and comfortable! I take it the food and drink was included? Thailand here you come.....again!

👍👍👍

Wow mantap good morning thank you bro Malaysia and Thailand

did u know that actually, u booked the train 1 day earlier than my birthday? its a fact

Tom did you get 30days or 45days on your passport for Thailand? I know its 45 days now by air but wasn't sure about the land borders.

For me, the KTM train is the best, but there are less passengers because the journey is quite far to the north of Malaysia
