Testing underway on Bangkok suburban line

I don't remember whether I've said that State Railway of Thailand should electrify North Main Line between Hua Lamphong and Don Muang, and should start frequent train service in the section.
But, it seems to be implemented.
As far as I researched, 'The 15·3 km starter section' means a part of SRT Light Red Line, and 'A second phase of the project' does a part of SRT Dark Red Line, both of which are detailed in Wikipedia
