Train ride from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore

Many ways to Singapore from Kuala Lumpur, in addition to using planes and buses, among them is to use the train. In early 2009 I get the chance to go to Singapore from Kuala Lumpur. Because I had been using aircraft and also a bus to Singapore, my wife and I finally decided to try using the train.

The train that I use when it is a name train humming Night Train Express, my name is very poetic yah? As the name implies, Railway Express Senandung Tonight at 21:20 the night depart from Kuala Lumpur and arrived in Singapore at 8.15 am the next day. Tickets classes I took were VIP tickets, which we'll get your own room with two beds and a bathroom complete with its own special hot water shower and toilet duduk.







Tepat at 21:20 tonight, we are all called to go to the railroad. I calculated carriage trains have about 15 cars. Once on the train car and into his VIP room, well it feels really different, well, not as I imagined. The place is smaller than I imagined and felt it was her room is less well maintained and some of the furniture looks already a bit old. And unfortunately again so willing to turn on the TV, it turns out there is writing on the bottom of his TV which stated that the current TV can not be used. Damn, I thought, if you can not sleep and no TV going manyun deh ...

Promptly at 21:35 the train started moving and not some time later officers train came to give an immigration form and give us the food menu. His menu was only there two, fried rice and fried noodles. I chose the fried rice, and oh yes, these VIP tickets for us going to get rations for dinner and also breakfast for free. 22:00 Hours fried rice come and direct me to eat, is bad taste, not bad at all.







Selesai eat and feel satisfied drowsiness was attacked, I try to euthanize myself. But whether because his train rocking continues and every hour stop at each station, plus another train whistle sounded diligent enough, my wife and I could not even sleep through the streets. And again it is super cold air conditioning and can not be set because the central control of this makes us more difficult to sleep because of cold, despite being provided blankets. Unfortunately again the TV is broken, so I can only baca2 bengong2 or stale magazine just in my room all night.



At about 5:10 am the doors on tap by railway officials and he said that we must prepare passports and immigration forms. Five minutes later at about 5:15 am we arrived at the train station as well as the immigration office in Johor Malaysia New. Then the Malaysian immigration officers came, plump and not friendly. Because no form coming into Malaysia we are both even in the fretted-omelin by immigration officers, our explanation plausible actual fact not received by him, in fact we both added in the fretted-omelin






Malas to argue me down last longer dr wagon and head office immigration at the station and fill out the arrival, this time the staff more friendly and smiling. Form is form arrival when you want to enter the country of Malaysia, so hope you do not eliminate them. When checking the immigration office in the city of Johor Malaysia New, we do not have got off the train, because in fact immigration officer who will come to each train car.


After spending about 1.5 hours here, at 6:40 o'clock in the morning the train was moving again towards the immigration office in Singapore at Woodlands, Singapore. Around 6:45 or five minutes later we arrived at the immigration office in Singapore. Well here we have to rush off and spend all your items to check at the immigration office in Singapore. I myself first not ngeh why the people in running down and rushed from the train, carrying the goods, it turns out they do so because they want quickly to the first queue at the immigration office counter Singapura






Untungnya my train of VIP It stopped right in front of the immigration office, so I do not have running such as those in lower class carriages. At the immigration office of Woodlands Singapore, I have no problem but the problem instead of my wife, because the passport validity period of stay of 5 months longer. Information is also for you, check your passport expiration time, for 6 months is a minimum figure. We recommend that you renew your passport first before going overseas. Fortunately my wife can get a visa as well to warn, warn of an immigration officer in order to extend the passport as soon as possible.



In Singapore Woodlands station you can opt out of the station or fixed station continue the journey to Tanjung Pagar in Singapore. Tanjung Pagar Station is near the area of ​​Orchard Road or Marina Bay, while the Woodlands station some distance away from downtown Singapore. At that time I decided to not get out of the station and went on to Woodlands TanjungSetelah station spent about 55 minutes at immigration offices in Singapore, train set off again towards Tanjung Pagar station at 7:40 o'clock in the morning. At about 8:25 am (more than 10 minutes dr schedule) we finally arrived at the Tanjung Pagar station, Singapore.






Total general long ride humming Night Train Express from Kuala Lumpur KL Sentral Station to Station Tanjung Pagar in Singapore is around 11 hours! Plus I could not sleep all night, it feels shattered body deh. After experiencing this, two days later I decided not to return to Kuala Lumpur by train, but by using a long bus journey is only about 4.5 hours!






For those of you who type 'stuck to the pillow a little delay' and could go to sleep on the train that cold, noisy and rocking on and also want to save on hotel accommodation costs, travel by train this evening I was feeling bad. But for someone who was difficult to sleep at my new place like this, do not take the train tonight deh, it felt really tired. Take the train that morning or afternoon! Then the next time I have to choose whether to use a bus or train from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore, I would choose to use the bus alone, only 4.5 hours long journey and at the immigration office if you use the bus only takes about 15 minutes only and not for hours as if we use the train. Well you count for yourself, if you take the bus, how many passengers does the most that should go down and taken care of at the immigration office, at most only 50 people, try to compare with the number of passenger trains as many as 15 cars?
