Chiang Mai Main Line is the second longest railway line in Thailand, after Su-ngai Kolok Main Line. It runs from Hua Lamphong Railway Station in the central to Chiang Mai Railway Station in the north, passing through many provinces. Notable services include the Nakhon Phing Express, the first class train serving the line. Many accidents have occurred on the line in recent years, prompting renovation work to commence on the track in late 2013, finally reopening on 2 December 2013.
