From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad or literally "Railway Company of the Malayan States" is Malaysia's national railway operator. Sometimes referred to as "KTM" or "KTMB", the service originated from a railway system left by the British when they colonised Malaya.
There are two main routes from Singapore through Malay Peninsula into Thailand, the eastern and the western line.
Apart from a short tourist line there are no rail services in East Malaysia. However, the railway Tenom - Kota Kinabalu in Sabah is being renovated to be put in full use again (map).
