Thank you, Alex 2306, I will be coming from Saphan Taksin station.
It is interesting how, for at least ten years, the Thailand forum has attracted the largest concentration of twits.

"F+rom Phrom Phong Station to soi 31: 500 meters+

From Asoke Station to soi 31: 1.4 Km."

"Depends where you are coming from I suppose."

From the map Asoke to soi 31 only looks marginally longer than Phomprong to soi 31, not nearly 3 times as far. If going to Phomprong puts you in another tickket zone might be worth walking from Asoke. There is an elevated walkway straight out of the BTS stattion.

Scaling the map gives a distance of about 720m from Asoke to Phomprong not 1.4 km.

Asoke to S31: http://goo.gl/maps/rf5dB

Phrom Phong to S31: http://goo.gl/maps/FQCMs

According to Google's GPS coordinates, Phrom Phong to S31 is 500 meters, Asoke to S31 is 800 meters. Doing the math, that is a difference of 300 meters, or 60%.

Now, I didn't figure in which exit would be taken, or the slope of the stairways, but, it does appear that Phrom Phong is, indeed, closer.
