Lavalin Skytrain (Thai: โครงการรถไฟฟ้าลาวาลิน) is a cancelled rapid transit in Bangkok, planned since 1984 during Prem Tinsulanonda reign as prime minister. It was to have been operated by Lavalin (SNC-Lavalin), a Canadian firm, which built the Skytrain system in Vancouver, Canada and two short lines in Toronto and Detroit. The BTS Skytrain was eventually built by Siemens, while Bombardier Inc., successor of Lavalin, eventually landed an order in Kuala Lumpur, the 29 km Kelana Jaya line.
