Ban Phachi Junction is a railway junction located in Phachi District, Ayutthaya Province, Thailand. It is a Class 1 Station and serves as a junction for the North and Northwestern Line of the State Railway of Thailand. Ban Phachi Junction had to be rebuilt after the Second World War after being hit by Allied Bombing. Some super express and express trains do not call at this station.
There is also a specialty at this station that is recommended for those who pass this station. That is the "Phachi" Coconut Ice Cream sold by hawkers with trays walking along platforms and is normally eaten using a plastic straw (as it will melt easily). The dessert is quite famous and has been mentioned on some Thai shows.
