Old KTM Stations














I had always wanted to take the KTM Mail Train from KL to Butterworth to see all the small stations along the way. This year I said I would actually get down to doing it...

A little too late though. They had already constructed the double track all the way from KL to Ipoh. This resulted in the closure of most of the smaller stations.

This was a photo of the old Kuala Kubu Road Station I took sometime early this year. Incidentally I found some photos of similar stations during their better days.

If anyone has more of these photos, care to share them with me.

Ghost Town - Kg Kepayang

I passed this town several times. It kind of hit when I noticed the simple layout of the town - two rows of shop houses with most of the structure in tact....but no inhabitants !!.
Never seen anything like this before.

It's on the trunk road north bound, 15 mins north of Gopeng just before entering Ipoh.
