[MERGED] Pengalaman naik keretapi KTMB - All Destinations

foto sepanjang landasan

aku selalu jugak naik ktapi ... tapi depa patut buat announcement bila dah nak sampai mana2 stesen .. takut org tertidur & terlepas stesen.. esp yg naik tren malam. kalau tren panjang lagi ler naya ... susah nak tgk papantanda destinasi kat stesen tu..esp stesen yg kecik2 .. tak banyak papan tanda.

akak naik ketapi dari baby lagi sebab dilahirkan di pahang then mak bawa balik ke penang naik ketapi.  Siap buat buai lagi...heheheh...lepas tu tiap2 tahun balik pahang naik ketapi dari Bworth - KL and KL - Bworth.  Penah gak  naik ketapi Pahang - KL kot (ke mana tah dah lupa(kecik lagi) time raya.  Ramai giler...kami tak dapat tempat duduk, Duduk kat tempat barang.  Masa tu rasa cam serik nak naik ketapi.  Sekali tu je naik ketapi dari Pahang...lain-lain naik bas dari Pahang ke KL and ambik ketapi KL - Bworth.  Tapi memang best...sekarang nih kalau tenguk ketapi, mesti teringat zaman2 dulu.  Siap mak masak nasi, rebus telur makan dalam ketapi.  Tapi anak2 tak mo naik ketapi...dorang cakap jemu.  Lambat...huhuhuhu

New Timetable For 22 Intercity Train Services

  Gemas Railway Station



Located in a small town called Gemas, this station, built in 1922 is functional till today as a changeover (stopover) for trains from the North (Butterworth), East Coast (Tumpat and Gua Musang) and the South (Singapore). Other than passenger trains, the station also accommodates cargo trains carrying major commodities such as cement, petrol, rubber and logs.

The station building has maintained its original structure and even now still houses two 1946 model North British Locomotive Company steam engines. If you are into nostalgia, do not miss the opportunity to strike a pose with these steam engines. In case you run into any difficulties, do not hesitate to ask assistance from the Station Master. In charge of all the operations; signalling, locomotive and sales, he will gladly come to your assistance.

If time permits, stay overnight in this small peaceful town. Savour the feel of fresh air in your face, the tranquil peace of the night and enjoy a respite away from the crowded scene of city life. You may also choose to tee-off to a round of golf at the 18-hole Gemas Golf Resort, a mere five minutes drive from the station.

KTMB kaya artifak sejarah

Oleh Riadz Radzi

Pelbagai barangan digunakan sejak era FMSR tersimpan di gudang stesen KTMB Klang, Ipoh, Tapah Road

BANYAK sejarah boleh disingkap mengenai perkhidmatan kereta api negara. Bermula dengan landasan kereta api pertama dari Taiping ke Port Weld di bawah kendalian Perak State Railway pada 1885, ia diambilalih Federated Malay State Railway (FMSR) pada 1901 hingga 1942.

Ini diikuti dengan penubuhan Keretapi Tanah Melayu (KTM) pada 1946 sebelum diswastakan pada 1992 dan dikenali sebagai Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB).

Perkhidmatan kereta api yang berusia lebih 100 tahun itu melalui pelbagai perubahan. Bermula dengan lokomotif arang batu, enjin diesel, elektrik diesel sehinggalah kepada perkhidmatan Komuter menggunakan tenaga elektrik yang pertama kali diperkenalkan pada 1995.

Dalam usia itu, KTMB memiliki banyak artifak bersejarah seperti peralatan kereta api, dokumen, gambar, tiket dan pelbagai barangan yang digunakan sejak era FMSR. Kebanyakan barangan terbabit kini disimpan dalam gudang di stesen KTMB Klang, Ipoh, Tapah Road dan beberapa stesen lama.

Kunjungan penulis ke gudang KTMB di Klang baru-baru ini, mendapati terlalu banyak artifak sejarah yang sepatutnya dipamerkan kepada orang ramai. Dengan koleksi yang ada, KTMB sewajarnya memiliki muzium mereka sendiri.

Apa yang pasti, selain memberi pengetahuan, ia mampu menerbitkan nostalgia kepada orang ramai. Contohnya tiket kertas tebal yang digunakan ketika era perkhidmatan kereta api mel pada tahun 70-an dan 80-an. Begitu juga dengan tiket memasuki platform berharga 20 sen yang kini tidak lagi digunakan.

Bagaimanapun, penulis difahamkan pihak KTMB memang mempunyai perancangan untuk menubuhkan muzium. Tambahan pula, KTMB turut memiliki Unit Muzium yang bertanggungjawab mengumpul dan menyimpan artifak lama.

Pegawai Unit Muzium KTMB, Kamalul Arifin Muhamad berkata, ada cadangan untuk menjadikan bangunan stesen kereta api lama Kuala Lumpur akan dijadikan muzium.

揅adangan memang ada, tapi bila ia akan bermula belum diberitahu. Kami juga di dalam proses untuk mengemaskini dan mengumpul barangan lama yang tersimpan di Klang itu,

last friday bawak anak anak (3 org - 11, 10 & 2 yrs old) naik keretapi gie jb, hubby dah gie early that morning with car.  nak biar diaorang rasa naik keretapi.  my last train trip was nearly 20 yrs ago rasanya.  Last time cuma naik 2nd class je, but this time sebab bawak anak kecik, kitaorang naik 1st class.  once in train, kita boleh tengok the locals or singaporean yg naik 1st class ni, orang putih semua naik 2nd class jer.  nak kata best tu, biasa je lah, still a train, in 1st class you could use the lounge kat sentral 1 hr before departure and welcome drink (whatever you want within their menu of course - kalau ko mintak cappucino ke expresso tak dak ler).  kerusi dia worn out, handrest dia ada yg dah pecah pecah - i think ktmb should think about refurbishing these coaches.  cumanya toilet dia agak bersih sket dari dulu la (2nd class) coz there are people who cleans it every now and then.  ada suratkhabar.  seat dia 3 in a row instead of 4.  my kids love the 6 -hr journey and they are asking to go for the night train plak ... i always love to gaze out from the window to see the scenery and the greenery along the way ...
