Um, no, it doesn't:
Trains to Malaysia branch off at Hat Yai (#7 on the map above) and cross the border at Sadao (#15), near the west coast, never entering the troubled provinces of Yala, Pattani and Narathiwat. The east coast line to Sungei Kolok (#9), on the other hand, runs through all of three.
