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 Bangkok Elevated Road and Train System (also known as the Hopewell 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]
On 21 November 2023, the MRT Pink Line station opened, turning the station into an interchange.[5][6]
