Transportation

Sisaket, a thoroughly modern city, is on the north-eastern railway line from Bangkok's grand central station, Hua Lamphong Railway Station (หัวลำโพง) to Warin Chamrap (วารินชำราบ), and also has frequent service to and from Bangkok's Northern Bus Terminal (often called Mo Chit Mai หมอชิดใหม่), with bus connections to all the northern and north-eastern provinces.
