History

Due to the Uttaradit Station being overcrowded, a new station had to be built. Therefore, in 1958, Sila At Station was built about 2 kilometres north of the original station, in the applied Thai architecture style. Originally, the station's name was "New Uttaradit", but was later changed and became the Northern Line's major railway container yard to handle economic booms and international trade, following Policy No. 3, steadying the economy with by logistics system improvements.

A Hanomag Steam Locomotive, No. 274, is on display on station premises.
