Many many moons ago, I took the direct train from KL, the old main terminal, to Singapore, at the old Tanjong Pagar station. It was an overnight train. Back the same way later that day, and had a slight delay at TP because there was filming that day. It was quicker and less hassle, using one single regular train.

Thanks for sharing e video with us 👍👍👍👍

Glad to help 😊

with the completion of the southern double-tracking project from Gemas to JB, it will be more convenient and faster to take the train between Singapore and not only KL but the rest of Malaysia, particularly along the west coast of the peninsula to Padang Besar. we can still take the shuttle train from Woodlands until the completion of the new RTS line to Woodlands North directly connecting with the Thomson-East Coast MRT line.

Sorry to say... Not the rest of Malaysia but the rest of peninsula Malaysia! Sabah n Sarawak also in Malaysia!! FIY !

0:23 is the Woodlands KTM ticket office and railway station. Despite the simple layout but it is the same as other KTM stations - it is managed by a station master (actually 2 masters but one standby) with two clerks as well as two porters. Besides Shuttle Tebrau tickets, you can also buy ETS tickets as well as Ekspres Selatan and Ekspres Rakyat Timuran tickets at Woodlands KTM station also.

Thank you so much for the video! Wanted to ask, are there any kopitiams around Gemas station where I can have a heavy meal? If no, then would you recommend we bring along a lunch meal onboard the train from JB since the journey starts at 8.30am?

Hi, there is a kopitiam at the old station beside the newer station, there is also a family mart and a KFC outlet nearby as well.
