Tao Poon station (Thai: สถานีเตาปูน, RTGS: Sathani Tao Pun, pronounced [sā.tʰǎː.nīː tāw pūːn]) is a MRT station in Bangkok, located on Tao Pun Junction, Bang Sue District, Bangkok. It is an interchange station of the Blue Line and Purple Line. It is also currently a terminal station for Purple line.
The station was opened on 6 August 2016, initially with only Purple line service and were not connected to the rest of Bangkok's rapid transit the system due to construction delays and a contract dispute. This resulted in Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha invoking the section 44 of the 2014 interim constitution of Thailand on 27 December 2016 to allow construction to proceed, and allowing BEM to operate Blue line service on this station. During that time, free shuttle bus service was provided, connecting Tao Poon station to a nearby Bang Sue MRT station.

Now up and running, spacious and clean, and it is impressive. The link issue seems to have been solved. Took the train from the suburb into the city center with no problem.

A poorly thought out disaster. Perhaps, once the 'Missing Link' issue is solved, I'll come back and rerate it, but for now, its a huge letdown. Edit:. Rating revised. An extra star as the 'missing link' issue has been resolved, and an extra star as there is a real nice toilet on the entrance level. Edit 2: first the toilet, I said it was nice before but having a stomach emergency this morning and putting it to use, I have to say it's the best toilet I have ever used in a transit facility in my life. Clean, well thought out, and they have a water hose for cleaning yourself. Second, now that the missing like is gone and the blue line connects, it's obvious that the station platforms are just not wide enough. Further, the purple line just doesn't run enough trains to efficiently connect with the blue. I know nothing will be done, but something should.

The station is spacious and quite clean. Has restrooms in case you need it. Though there are two things that they should improve. To topup my card, the night shift asked me toet out of the exit to enter the checkpoint AND they demand checking my belongings again. How am i supposed to produce anything illegal during that two seconds? Also, dotard (I mean security guards - it's spell checker's fault) on the platform keep blowing whistle right next to your ear even though safety gates are installed, hurting your ears until you reach whatever destination.

prepared some times if you going to use it on the rush hour, it might cost you 30mins more

The blue line now terminates at this station making this station becomes an interchange station between the purple line and the blue line. (After waited for 1 year) Very convenient!
