Common questions about Trains in Malaysia
What Trains routes are there in Malaysia?
We sell 936 Trains routes in Malaysia, serving 61 places, run by 2 operators. Every one of those routes has an operator that actually serves it, so the count is the network we can sell rather than every pair of places on a map.
How much do Trains tickets in Malaysia cost?
The cheapest Trains fare in Malaysia is €26.19 for one passenger, across the 936 routes we sell there. The median route runs 99 km in a straight line, which is the distance that fare should be read against before comparing it to anywhere else.
Can I travel out of Malaysia by Trains?
48 of the Trains routes we sell touching Malaysia cross a border and 888 stay inside it, reaching 1 other countries including Thailand. Cross border routes are usually the ones where the fare and the journey time differ most between operators.
Which operators run Trains services in Malaysia?
2 operators run Trains services on routes we sell in Malaysia: Keretapi Tanah Melayu, การรถไฟแห่งประเทศไทย. Each is a real carrier from the published operator catalog, and each has its own fares and conditions. The operator table on this page compares them on speed, flexibility and what is on board.
What is the longest Trains route in Malaysia?
The longest Trains route we sell touching Malaysia runs from Alor Setar to Seremban, 416 km in a straight line. The median route in the country is 99 km, so this one is a considerable outlier and the fares on it behave differently from the rest.
Where these numbers come from
Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modeled number pass for a filed one.
