✅BTS SKYTRAIN STORY EP2 | Cost | Design | Architecture | Construction | Trains | Testing | Opening

The BTS skytrain story is a look back to the 1990s, a complete history of the planning, early design, the partnership with BTSC, the environmental obstacles, and the 1997 financial crisis. We look at the architecture, design, structures, construction, the trains and the future projects as well as some interesting fun facts and nerdy trivia which makes this Skytrain video so unique and complete that there is NO OTHER VIDEO OF THIS KIND anywhere on Youtube with exclusive footage never seen before. Enjoy!
