History

Lak Si station opened in 1898 as part of Thailand's first railway between Bangkok and Ayutthaya.[1] The original station structure was demolished in 1990 during the construction of the failed Hopewell BERTS project.

The new elevated station opened on 2 August 2021.[2][3] The ground-level station closed on 19 January 2023 and long-distance trains on the Northern and Northeastern lines stopped operating from the ground-level station entirely.[4]
