A train conductor went out of his way to help an elderly lady after seeing how difficult it was for her to get off the train
On Monday, 13 January, a Thai woman named Pimchanok Praisuwan shared the heartwarming story on Facebook after the train conductor helped her 82-year-old mother with reduced mobility get off the train with such care.
Praisuwan and her mother were on a train from Hat Yai to Ratchaburi province, a popular tourist area in the outskirts of Bangkok
According to Sin Chew Daily, when the train arrived at the destination, it stopped one track away from the arrival platform.
The train carriage steps were also too high for Praisuwan's mother to alight without having to jump down.
The train stopped away from the platform at Ban Pong station in Ratchaburi province.
