The SRT Eastern Line is made up of two main lines, namely the Aranyaphrathet Main Line and Ban Phlu Ta Luang Main Line. The Phra Phutthachai Main Line linking to the Northeastern Line outside of Bangkok is also part of the Eastern Line, however there are only freight services plying on the said line. The Eastern Line only operates with Ordinary third-class all-stop trains. In Bangkok, the Suvarnabhumi Airport Rail Link runs parallel and offers interchanges to the Eastern Line for most parts.
The easternmost end of the SRT Eastern Line at Ban Klong Luk Border connects with Royal Railway (Cambodia) train services from Poipet to Phnom Penh.
