New trains for KTMB
Advertisement:
Hearing of buying new trains from Transport Department as well as KTM Berhad,finally we could see the true face of the new trains.
The new train is made by Hyundai Rotem with Mitsubishi design and will be used on Kuala Lumpur-Ipoh route of ETS(Express Train Service) initially.The designed max. speed of this train is 160km/hour,however,it will only be running at 140km/hour maximum in the current route,spending 1 hour and 55 minutes for the single trip.
The new train is a new hope for a lot of people.At least we now know that KTM is doing something improving their services.I just wonder know when they want to increase more trains for existing commuter services and when the ETS will be extended to Penang/Singapore.
I think for all I mentioned,I still need to wait for longer time.

I love trains rather then the bus…In Malaysia the best public transport would be the train because there is no traffic jam & it can run smoothly…I really hope that KTMB will upgrade the train system well in the future & I will be the most happiest person on this planet if KTMB bought high speed train…The journey can be shorten & can safe more time…I really hope that the magic will happened someday…
I totally agree with you.I do hope that day could come asap.
