The new sleepers made from Takhianthong wood were taken to Songkhla Municipality technicians as a sample to assess whether they passed the standards for installing the other two railway tracks or not, along with having forest officials check permissions as well.
Size 8 inches by 6 inches, length 2 meters, some pieces 2.5 meters, long pieces for use with rails with a railroad turnout.
Nails must be manufactured in a factory located in the central region. Each sleeper costs an average of 2,000 baht. Using 400 sleepers would total a cost of 800,000 baht.
Track-laying will begin after the locomotive is in position. This is necessary to ensure there's enough space for forklifts to operate efficiently. The locomotive setup is anticipated for mid-May. They recently met with railway authorities regarding the locomotive's relocation. They are awaiting communication from relevant agencies, like the Department of Highways, about clearing electrical and communication lines.
Security and Logistics: Technicians are concerned about the possibility of sleeper theft. To mitigate this, sleepers will be transported directly to the site for immediate installation rather than being stockpiled. Forestry officials have also inspected trees near the train station.
On April 30, 2024, more than a hundred Takhian Thong wooden railway sleepers, out of the required 400, which need to be used, have numbers written on each piece.
May 20, 2024: They need to fix the area in front of the platform so big trucks can get in and out easily.
The tech guy said he's only supposed to level things out, not move the extra dirt. They're piling it up for now, but the dump truck didn't show up today. The backhoe also broke, so they'll have to finish this up tomorrow.
