This time I didn't have the luxury of a/c, but was in a 2nd class with fan sleeper. The faded green walls and slightly narrower seats were not a good sign of things to come. The multitude of spiders and cockroaches also added to the old world meets dumpy charm of this train. Thank goodness there were no windows on the train. The breeze added to the powerless fans trying to cool us down. We left during daylight and the Northern green countryside whizzed by my window. The sun began to set and the colours of the sky changed and the scenery around the train darkened. Beds were made around 8pm. Once my train arrived in Bangkok at 7am, I was glad to be back in the City of Angels.
