Ban Laem railway station is a railway station located in Tha Chalom subdistrict, Mueang Samut Sakhon district, Samut Sakhon province. It is a class 1 railway station and is located on the west bank of the Tha Chin River. As there is no bridge connecting the two separate sections of the Maeklong Railway, passengers continuing onwards in either direction must use a ferry to cross to Mahachai railway station on the opposite side of the river. Currently, 8 rail services operate at the station.[1]
History
The station opened on 10 June 1905 during the reign of King Chulalongkorn, as part of the Ban Laem – Maeklong railway line operated by the Tachin Railway Ltd.[2][3]
