Existing stations and presious lists of extension
stations
Sukhumvit Line Stations
Mo Chit (N8) the northernmost
station on Phahonyothin - the Skytrain maintenance facilities and HQ building
are here on the site of the former Northern Bus Terminal - Chatuchak Weekend
Market is across the street
Saphan Kwai (N7) intersection of Suthisarn and Phahonyothin
Roads
(N6) this will be a future station
Ari (N5)
Sanam Pao (N4) in front of the Channel 5 TV station
on Phahonyothin
Victory Monument (N3) on the south side of the Victory
Monument traffic circle
Phayathai (N2)
Rajchathewi (N1) in front of Asia Hotel
Siam (CEN) here the Skytrain turns onto Phloenchit/Sukhumvit
Road - this is the main station where one can transfer to the Silom Line
Chitlom (E1) near Central Department Store
Phloenchit (E2)
Nana (E3) near Landmark Hotel
Asok (E4) at the intersection of Asok and Sukumvit
- the MRTA Subway passes north-south here
Phrom Phong (E5) in front of The Emporium (shopping
center)
Thong Lo (E6) at Sukumvit Soi 55
Ekkamai (E7) at the intersection of Ekkamai (Sukumvit
Soi 63) and Sukumvit - near the Eastern Bus Terminal (busses to Eastern
seaboard areas - Pattaya, etc.)
Phrakhanong (E8)
On Nut (E9) line ends just beyond Sukumvit Soi 77
Sukhumvit Extension (AKA Samrong extension)
- 8.9 km - proposed
E10 Samphob Naruemit (Sukhumvit 62) - to BKK Expressway
E11 Punnawithee (Sukhumvit 101) - near Wat Thammamongkhol
E12 Udomsuk (Sukhumvit 103) - the Junction to New
Bangkok International Airport and Samrong
E13 Bearing (Sukhumvit 107) - near the Bordary Pole
between Bangkok and Samut Prakarn
E14 Thepharak - Thepharak
Intersection
E15 Samrong Tai - where the proposed Kanjanaphisek
Outer Ring Road intersects with Sukhumvit Road (a transfer station to
the southern extension of MRTA Orange Line)
Vibhavadee-Rungsit Extension Stations (north from Morchit on
Phahonyothin Road-these are northern extensions to the Sukumvit Line)
- proposed
Two routes are under consideration: one continuing up Pahonyothin Road
(AKA Ratchayothin Extension) and the other going up Vibhavadee-Rungsit
Highway (Highway No. 31) to Ngam Wongwan Intersection. The
Vibhavadee-Rungsit alternative is proposed because by continuing up Phahonyothin
Road the Skytrain would have to pass above a towering pile of flyovers
and overpasses at Lat Prae intersection.
National Stadium (W1)
near Mahboonkrong Shopping Center
Siam (CEN) this is a main station where one can
transfer to the Sukumvit Line - from here the Silom line turns south down
Ratchadamri Road
Ratchadamri (S1) near Regent Hotel
Saladaeng (S2) here the line crosses Rama IV Road
and heads down Silom Road - near Patpong and Silom Complex
Chong Nonsi (S3) here the line crosses from Silom
to Sathorn Road
(S4) this will be a future station
Surasak (S5)
Saphan Taksin (S6) the line ends before the Taksin
bridge that crosses the Chao Phrya River
Silom Extension (AKA Taksin Extension)
- 2.2 km - proposed
S7 Krung Thonburi Road - one Krung Thonburi Road near Charoen Nakhon Intersection
S8 Wongwian Yai - near Woangwian Yai Railway Station
(probably 400 m from King Taksin the Great Monument at Wongwian Yai (Thonburi
Circle) which will become a junction for Southern Section of the MRTA
Orange Line
Chong Nonsee Extension - 8.5 km - proposed
This line - if approved - will start
from Chong Nonsee Station (S3), passing through the Narathwat Ratchanakharin
Avenue to Rama III Road (Ratchadaphisek Inner Ring Road) and turning right
along Rama III Road until it ends at Sathupradit intersection.
This extension is actually one of 11 feeder lines
which is supposed to be a loop from Chong Nonsee Station to Taksin Bridge
Station (S6) - going along the Narathwat Ratchanakharin Avenue, Rama III
Road, turning right at Thanon Tok Intersection to Charoen Krung Road (AKA
New Road - the first road in Bangkok - first constructed in 1864 during
the reign of King Mongkut). However, there are many obstacles to
the new plan including the new Bangkok Bridge 2, budget constraints, the
narrowess of Charoen Krung Road. Thus this feeder line has been cut out
of the plan.
Nong Ngoohao Extension : 18.4 km - proposed
(assuming route code as X until the official letter
is decided upon)

Pakong Highway (Highway 34) and BITEC, an exhibition center

Nong Ngoo Hao Airport (AKA New Bangkok International Airport)

won't be a free transfer station to MRTA Blue line (Phaholyothin Station)
nearby)
N10 Magic Land Theme Park - the oldest theme Park

N11 Ratchayothin - near the headquarter of Siam
Commercial Bank PCL and Major Cineplex (IMAX) - Ratchayothin Branch
