Always check with your relevant government travel advisory before making any overseas journey. By way of example, he American advisory is here; http://travel.state.gov and the British one here, http://www.fco.gov.uk/travel/ The British one give sthe following advice; Since January 2004, there have been almost daily attacks in the far south. These include arson, bombings and shootings. Targets have included civilians and members of the security forces, government offices, tourist hotels, discotheques and bars, shops, marketplaces, supermarkets, schools, transport infrastructure and trains. Over 3,000 people have been killed and several thousand more injured. No British nationals have been killed in these attacks, but some other foreign nationals have been killed and injured. There is a state of emergency in the provinces of Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat. Martial law remains in place in these provinces. Security authorities can detain suspects without charge, censor the media, conduct searches and seize documents. Martial law is also in place in the Chana and Thepha districts of Songkhla province.

If you are considering travel to, or through, the far southern provinces of Thailand, you should seriously reflect on whether or not your journey is absolutely necessary. If you do decide to go ahead with your trip you are advised to regularly review your own and your family's security arrangements.That said, while indiscrimate attacks sadly cant be ruled out anywhere these days, there is very little risk travelling by train in South East Asia. These Government warnings apply to the Thai provinces that border Malaysia, (which the train will pass through) but these attacks have generally been on local, stattionary targets and there is no history of attacks on trains. As a general rule, make sure you get an express train, pay to stay in a better class of cabin and every likelihood is that you will have a pleasant, uneventful journey. If you're naturally cautious and would rather not take a risk, no matter how small. Flights for Bangkok to Singapore are inexpensive.

Yes, you can. Please see the page written up by Seat61 that describes the particulars of taking a train from Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, to Singapore via Malaysia. Note, however, that you will need to switch trains along the way.
