Added the Bang Sue tollgate as option to go North; fixed a few typos & grammar
=== To the North ===
'''Option One''':
Highway 1 heading north starts at the Victory Monument. Two bus lines will take you a good way up the road: 39 and 510. Get off at the last stop
[http://www.transitbangkok.com/stations/Bangkok%20Bus/Thamassat%20University%2C%20Rangsit%20Campus Thamassat University, Rangsit Campus] ( มหาวิทยาลัยธรรมศาสตร์ รังสิต). Bus 39 doesn't depart from the bus stop listing its number, instead it stops at a different part of the roundabout.

Second way.'''Option Two''':From central rail road station (13.739418, 100.516694) you can take a train (every 1 one or two hourhours, 15 bat=0.5$฿15) to this station (14.385274, 100.598595) or sometimes the train will stop at the next station ''Map Pgra Chan '' (14.402356, 100.632265), but you can easily hitch-hike ftom from the village to the main road. '''Option Three''':First, for most convenience, take a taxi to ''Kasemrad Hospital'' (Thai: โรงพยาบาล เกษมราษฎร์ ประชาชื่น) in ''Bang Sue'' district. Alternatively, the closest metro station is ''Wong Sawang'' on the MRT's Purple Line, from where you'll have to get out of the station walking in a southeast direction, to the big intersection of ''Wong Sawang Rd''/''Ratchadaphisek Rd''. Turn left and follow ''Ratchadaphisek Rd'' until the intersection right at the canal/river, where you have to turn left again. After a few metres, you'll already see the hospital. Facing the hospital's main car park/entrance area, turn right and pass it on the right, entering ''Sai Sin Alley'' (you can see a 7-11 convenience store); it's the only road branching off before the expressway bridge. Follow the road until the crossroad and turn right on the second road, as the first one leads back to an intersection near the canal/river. From there, you'll already see a road running along the side of the expressway. Enter and follow this road; there's no pedestrian walkway so you'll first walk on the grass on the left hand side, then along the edge of the road. Eventually, as the road rises, you'll see that it becomes the leftmost lane of the tollgate, where you can simply pass on the left hand side on the pedestrian walkway that starts shortly before the gate. Right behind the gate is a [https://goo.gl/maps/9PKjPbNi8sBJ5aMy9 covered walkway (link to Google Maps)], where a lot of people going North stop. When [[User:Raureif|Raureif]] arrived here with his girlfriend in January 2019, tollgate staff approached them five minutes after arrival; after learning they wanted to hitchhike to [[Phitsanulok]], the staff actually stopped cars just coming out of the tollgate and helped them with communication. Result: A ride after less than 10 minutes.
