Here are some things to know and suggestions: --- ### **1. ComfortandPrivacy** - **The topbed** is approximately**190cm high,** suitableformostpeople. However,ifyouareover**185cm,** youmayfeelcongestedandhavetobendyourlegsa little. - **Pros**: Youre more private thanthebottombedbecauseitishigherfromthefloorandhasacurtains. - **Cons**: Youhavetoclimbupanddown Which may not be convenient for the elderly or children. --- ### **2. Facilities on the train** There are power outlets, but you need to have an extension cord from the bottom up. :) --- ### **3. Travel time and conditions** - **Travel time**: The Northern Line (Uttaradit-Bangkok) takes about **8 hours**, leaving Uttaradit at 19.20 and arriving in Bangkok at 4.30. - **During Songkran**: Heavy traffic on both trains and roads, the upper bed may be the only option left, as the lower bed is often booked early. ### **4. Ticket booking techniques** - **Advance booking**: You can book **90 days** before traveling. Overall, I like sleeping on the upper bed more than the lower bed, because it is more private, the air is cool because it is near the air conditioner, and I sleep comfortably. :) In addition, the current trains are quite punctual, especially during festivals, so you don't have to waste time in traffic :)
