We observed the field of GRB 250311A/EP250311a detected by MAXI (Tatano et al. GCN 39660) and EP (Mao et al., GCN 39664), using the 0.7-m telescope of the Thai Robotic Telescope network (TRT), located at Sierra Remote Observatories in California. Observations started at 12:00:05 UT on 2025-03-11, i.e., ~10 hours after the EP trigger, and 2 x 300s frames were obtained in the R band.
No uncatalogued optical source is detected in the stacked R-band image within the EP/WXT error circle, down to the 3-sigma limiting magnitude of R ~ 20.
