The Ramkhamhaeng station on the Airport Link, between Bangkok and Suvarnabhumi international airport, was temporarily closed this morning after a fire broke out in a shop-house beneath the elevated station.

The fire was reported at about 4.54am and firefighters took under an hour to get it under control. At 6am, Airport Link issued a statement via Facebook explaining that the Ramkhamhaeng station was temporarily closed.

The fire did not otherwise disrupt the train service and Ramkhamhaeng station was reopened at 8.30am, albeit the escalator remains out of service.
