Does anyone know whether we can catch the Padang Besar to Hatyai train if we take the KL to Padang Besar train which arrives in Padang Besar at 15:15? Presumably that will be 14:15 Thai time? Has anyone tried this? Will we have time to go to the Thai side of the train station to buy tickets? I presume the time of the Thai train starts off from Padang Besar (is it the Thai side)? Must I take a taxi to that from the Malaysian Padang Besar? I read somewhere that the train is 14:40 Too confusing for words...and in the end, all I want is to get to Pak Bara to get the speedboat to Koh Bulon Lae - must I book the speedboat in advance? Any help would be appreciated. The fact that Malaysia appears to have stopped all international trains running from Singapore to Thailand is astounding and very inconvenient for train lovers.
