Yeah, what's up with that? I always hear 'rot-fai-faa' too. Or simply 'rot-fai' as when the engineer says 'stani-rot-fai Nana' for Train Station Nana.

I just say "BTS" and most Thais seem to know what I'm talking about.

DO take the skytrain to the river and high speed ferry to the Wat or where ever. Cheaper, usually faster, cooler, and more relaxing than by taxi/bus. Trying to get anywhere by taxi/bus is friggin useless most of the time (like when it rains or rush hour which lasts about 20 hours per day).

The engineer's scripted announcement is actually 'satanee dtor-pai Nana..' (dtor-pai ต่อไป , a compound word meaning 'next')
