The SRT also wants the German company to provide training for its staff and act as a consultant to its rail-link operation.

The SRT is expected to sign a 90-million-baht (2.5-million-dollar) deal with Deutsche Bahn International to operate the airport rail link. DBI should start working next month.

The SRT is now forming a subsidiary to operate the rail link. It has hired Chulalongkorn University's Sasin Graduate Institute of Business Administration to recruit staff for the subsidiary. However, qualified SRT staff and relatives will receive preference for recruitment.

Suvarnabhumi Airport
The Airport Rail Link would begin full operations by the end of this year or early next.

The Airport Rail Link will connect Suvarnabhumi Airport with the City Air Terminal in Bangkok's Makkasan area.
