RED SHIRTS

Skytrain services resumed at 10am


Skytrain services are resumed at 10am after red shirts agreed to remove tyres they put on the trains' tracks in the morning.

The removal came as skytrain authorities negotiated with a group of red shirts who used the tyres to block the servies at Chidlom station at about 5am.

The authorities ordered the suspension of services at all stations shortly before 6am. 

Earlier travelling by skytrains was paralysed Tuesday morning after a group of red shirts used tyres to block train tracks at Chidlom station, forcing the authority to suspend all services.

The red shirts leaders said on stage at Rajprasong rally site that the blocking is a decision by a group of red shirts, not by them.

At 5am, a group of red shirts carried tens of tyres and went up to Chidlom station. they then threw the typres onto the tracks.

There were a lot of people who wished to use skytrains to avoid traffic which was congested following heavy rains in early morning. They looked upset when learning that the services are suspended.

Skytrain executive Anat Apapirom said in an interview with a news programme on Tuesday morning that the red shirts also turned away security cameras at the station so that they would ot capture their actions.
