The State Railway of Thailand (SRT) is grappling with major structural challenges, including workforce shortages, ageing locomotives, mounting debt, management issues and the transition to a modern rail system, say study findings presented at a recent seminar.
The seminar, titled "Solving Problems and Developing the Railway Sector Sustainably," was organised by the State Railway Workers' Union of Thailand (SRUT), the State Enterprises Workers' Relations Confederation and the Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions.
