PTT Wants to Build Your Next Train! Intuitively speaking, the national oil company isn't the first company that comes to mind when Thailand needs a new train, but that didn't stop PTT Group from sending two of their subsidiaries (GPSC and Energy Complex), respectively their power and property, from securing TOR (terms of reference) for the project to construct trains to link Bangkok's airport terminals.
