BUDDYMOON DAY 471/1000 (VLOG 138)
After spending a month in Malaysia, it was time for us to head to our 3 country without taking flights from Singapore to Vietnam. We crossed the border via bus when entering Malaysia but this time, we going to be crossing boarders via train.
As we are in Penang, Malaysia, we first have to take a train from Penang to Padang Basar, a Malaysian town on the border of Thailand. Here, we will need to hop off the train, pass immigration and wait to board our Thailand train to Bangkok known as the Special Express No.46.
This overnight sleeper train to bangkok will take about 17 hours and seeing that we have not slept on a sleeper train before, it's going to be quite interesting. We also don't have any Thai Bhat on us so it could pose a problem with getting food on the train. But this is why we are making this video, to see what it's like aboard a asleeper train from Malaysia to Thailand.

THANKS FOR WATCHING!!!

I just completed a month of backpacking through 8 cities in malaysia and thailand solely by rail. It was the best experience. Many tourists tend to skip Hatyai which is just an hour away from Padang Besar by train for 50 baht. Loads of cheap good food and shopping. You could even do a day trip to Songhkla from there by minivan for 35 baht. They got some really beautiful beaches with clear waters. Then from Hatyai you can hop on a sleeper to Bangkok.
Funny to see you doing the reverse journey I did. I had the opposite problem after arriving in Malaysia, I only had Thai Baht and there was no place to exchange money and no ATM, but in my case I couldn't buy anything with that on the Malaysian train 😅
Hahahaha🤣 i think we got lucky that the lady was willing to take Ringgit😮 but your cabin was way nicer than ours😜 we wish we got yours🤣
Yeaa but you got lucky to book business class ets which included 2 meals

Dear Buddy Moon,
I just wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for your recent video. It was truly fantastic and incredibly enjoyable to watch.
I wanted to particularly commend your team's courage and creativity in choosing the long route, such as traveling by train instead of opting for the simpler and faster option like flying. This decision not only added depth and richness to your content but also gave viewers like myself a unique perspective and experience that we wouldn't have had otherwise. It takes real courage to take the road less traveled, and your willingness to do so is truly admirable.
I eagerly anticipate more of your videos and adventures. Your dedication to delivering high-quality and captivating content is truly commendable, and I can't wait to see what you have in store for us next.
Thank you once again for sharing your incredible journey with us. Wishing you continued success and endless adventures ahead!
Last but not least do hope to see u in japan in the near future.
Warm regards,
yasa
Hallo im joshua Christoper from Penang, welcome to Penang hope you have a great stay safe trip to Bangkok Thailand
Thanks guys for doing this great video. We did the same trip in 1995 when we were about your age. The train may be newer but else it hasn't changed. It brought back lots of memories.
So fun to watch!!
It’s been an amazing travel experience with you guys in videos❤❤, hope it keeps on going with all the new amazing adventures.
Thank you so much 😁
Saying it again.... I can't stop smiling watching you guys. You make every outing so enjoyable and fun. God Bless! 😀😀
Awh thank you so much @simoez9197❤️😁 It really means so much to us that you enjoy travelling along with us.
❤
It's actually a good idea to travel by train. It maybe slower but is definitely more comfortable and hassle free if well planned. Much more luxurious than sitting on cramped airplane seats.
Thank you guys for bringing me along on your long train ride 😊 I enjoyed this video, wishing you all the best with your travels.
Enjoyed this very much 😊
Oh you guys are so adorable! ❤
Hahahahaha... thanks Lance😁😜
Guys... Why I'm addicted to your videos... 😅😂.. Just love your adventure.. ❤💜
You guys are awesome together ❤❤❤
Ahhhhh Thank you😁😁
You guys are such great match ❤❤❤❤
I have traveled this trip back and forth in the 90s to early 2000, probably around 20 to 30 times. Crazy, almost nothing has changed
Wow?

Nice ride...,
Aiseh.... They just started a new ferry service here.. i wish u guys could experience that aswell.
You are awesome
I like you both talk, sweet voice both of you
Thank you😊
The old Georgetown Butterworth ferry only charges for trip from mainland to island. The return trip (island to mainland) was free. The new ferry you have to pay both ways (RM2 each way for adults). The ferry arrives to Penang Sentral station on Butterworth side and you can walk to the train station. The Butterworth train station has a lift from waiting area to the platform. At Padang Besar, immigration and custom clearance for both Malaysia and Thailand are done on the Malaysian side if you travel from Malaysia to Thailand. I travelled from Penang to Hua Hin a few years ago on the sleeper train. Quite enjoyable. Must try it again sometime. A word of caution. Thailand train air con temperature is set to Arctic. You need some warm clothes.
Ovaltine is a malted chocolate drink. Similar to Milo. I'm surprised they don't have it in Australia.
Liked your vids and tour guys. Love from Pakistan❤
Yup, the train you took to Padang Besar is KTM Komuter Northern Sector, it is a commuter train service in northern part of Peninsular Malaysia, similar to komuter in Greater KL or Greater Jakarta.
Anw, there's a direct sleeper train from Padang Besar all the way to Bangkok? I thought we need to go to Hatyai first.
Love the content, just started following you guys! Cheers from Chicago, USA! Do you guys ever plan on making videos in the states?
Thanks for the follow😁😁 yes we do plan on visiting the states in future but not sure when😁
Hope to see you guys back in India soon!! Honestly enjoyed those videos alot and hope you guys will be back soon to explore the rest of the India...!!
Love
awesome video, where did you guys get the tickets to Train #46 ?
Woopp
You are very nice Guys. everytime i saw your videos. from #Bangladesh
Thank you so much 😀
What's the ticket price from Pedang Besar to Bangkok?
Good job you two! Enjoyed learning about the long train to Bangkok. Watching from the US. What is your average time editing a video?
So glad you enjoyed it😁 its takes us about 2 days to edit a video completely👍
❤❤❤❤
Seems like the train stations are not luggage friendly. I did not see any elevators, only stairs. Will be hard for older folks with luggage.
If you come again sri lanaka go to kandos factory...That is chocolate heaven❤
The train to padang besar frm butterworth is a commuter train (metro for the northern region)... There is an express train called the ETS but I think it's easier and cheaper to take the commuter..
hi! is it possible to get tickets without using the card?
@@kimmysplatqn yes for the commuter you can go to the ticket counter there, and maybe the ticket machines (but mot sure they have them) as i only travel there by ETS...
Cute Couple u both.
This train is from Padang Besar to Bangkok?
❤️
Is there a wifi available in the train?
Do you need to book a train ticket from Pedang Besar to Bangkok online or you need to Buy ticket at the station??
how can you book the ticket online?
How's the internet service on the island? Worcation problem :)
I am your new subscriber dear buddy ❤😊love from manipur india
Hi morning, may I ask is the train come with power socket ? Bringing kids and oldfolks , worry about their meal arrangemnt as i know the train is without a cafeteria. Thinking to bring along a mini kettle. Thanks

Ovaltine is a malted chocolate drink. Similar to Milo. You all don't have it in SA? (I think your accent is SA?)
😊
So so sweet,,🥲🤗🤗🤗
The journey was cool, though the train was beyond air conditioned and probably refrigerated. Perhaps they could rename it as the Polar Express.
Hahahha it definitely felt like the polar express, but was a great experience none the less🤣
I am also want go Malaysia to Bangkok
Already leaving? Awww... but you have not been to the east coast. Its a different scene and vibe from the west coast where u guys have been.
Hello Buddymoon, may I ask, what was the Immigration checks like from Penang and on arrival to Thailand.
Do you have a Thai visa before embarking in the journey?
dont expect any sort of answer for this pair , amateurs ..
Yeah you only pay from mainland to Penang and it’s free from the island to the mainland
