1 May 2008 : The Trip From Johor Bahru To Seremban via Classic Train

Outlook of the Train Station Johor Bahru. Walking distance( 2 minutes) from the Malaysia Singapore custom.

The City Square Mall stood in front on the old classic building.


Car Park managed by the KTM ( Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad).

Dusty and rusty impaired trolley were lying motionless. Wonder how long these metals is being abandoned.


A signboard


Johor State Flag outside the window.

Corridor of the waiting platform


Passengers in the waiting room. We had waited approximately hour after the arrival time for the train. Finally, the roar of the snail long vehicle broke the silent of the platform. My thought : Welcome.

Imigresen entrance which i guessed no longer in operation.

Long waiting platform. Looked empty? Perhaps, people are looking at the more efficient and faster alternative.


In the far right, the white building. Yes, that's one of the mega project in the Iskandar Malaysia, CIQ ( Custom, Immigration and Quarantine Complex) refer : http://www.gerbangperdana.com.my/servlets/sfs?s=08uhSqZqP7dTpXUf&t=/Default/selectCatalog&i=1129525537501&b=1129525537501&l=0&ParentID=0&CustomerID=0&startRow=0


One of the train station

Samsung LCD screen in the train. Which is one of facility that impressed me and surprised me at the same time. This piece of electronic was working in BLACK and WHITE only! Bad luck because picked the wrong seat. The screen in next cabin was displaying the vibrant and sharp.

Station 'Paloh'


Scenery on the way

Is this warehouse occupied? The big X maybe indicated no human allowed....


The train cruise over the small town.


Unknown town

Station 'Segamat'


Another outlook of the station.


Alighted passenger caught in the camera.


No idea what building it is...

A car caught to compete with the train. Obviously, the winner is...

Station 'Gemas'


Ah Pek was boarding, creeping into the seat.



Green

Untouched


Factory in the view

Green again

canal? or natural rill? Clearly, there was a human activities print.


Station 'Tampin'

Worship building, i conjectured


err...a farm?

A red capped building in the middle of the land.


A herd of buffalo. Somewhere near Rembau.


what were these buffalo doing in the rubber estate?

***And after 6 hours bumping in the train, finally i arrived at Seremban.
