If traveling from Thailand to Singapore or from Singapore to Thailand, most people choose the most convenient and easiest method, which is by plane, as it saves time and is not very expensive. Another popular method is taking a bus from Hat Yai through Malaysia with the final destination being Singapore. However, many people are unaware that it is also possible to travel by train from Thailand to Singapore or take a train back from Singapore, which is ideal for those who love leisurely train journeys and have some time to spare.
This video will show a land journey from Singapore back to Thailand by train through Malaysia. It starts from Woodlands Checkpoint in Singapore, crossing over to Johor Bahru, Malaysia. Then, you take the East Coast Line train, train number 26, from JB Sentral station to the final destination at Tumpat station in Kelantan, in northern Malaysia, which borders Thailand at Tak Bai and Sungai Kolok districts. From there, you take a bus from Tumpat to the Rantau Panjang border, which is opposite Sungai Kolok district. Then, you cross the Golok River into Thailand.
KTM Adds Special Express Trains, Cutting Travel Time Between Key Stations: Kuala Lumpur to Padang Besar in Under 5 Hours
Manager Online, June 3, 2024, 14:20
Malayan Railways (KTMB) in Malaysia has revised the ETS (Electric Train Service) schedule effective from August 1, 2024. The upgrade includes six special ETS Express trains, which will stop only at main stations, reducing travel time from Kuala Lumpur to Butterworth, Penang to 3 hours and to Padang Besar to under 5 hours.
Today (June 3), KTMB, Malaysia's state-owned railway company, announced the new ETS schedule effective from August 1, 2024. The revised schedule considers the ongoing Klang Valley Double Tracking project, phase 1 from Rawang to KL Sentral, Kuala Lumpur, and the integration of ETS services with other train services at key stations. These include the Komuter Utara from Padang Besar to Butterworth and Ipoh, Ekspres Selatan from JB Sentral to Gemas, and Ekspres Rakyat Timuran from JB Sentral to Tumpat.
The ETS Express services (trains starting with EX) will stop only at main stations, thereby shortening travel times. Travel from KL Sentral to Ipoh will take 2 hours, from KL Sentral to Butterworth will take 3 hours, and from KL Sentral to Padang Besar will take 4 hours and 50 minutes. The new schedule and the introduction of these six special express trains aim to save travel time and encourage public use of safe and convenient rail transport.
Tickets for the period from August 1 to November 30, 2024, went on sale at noon on May 30. Passengers are encouraged to plan and book tickets in advance, especially during public holidays and school vacations, through the KTM Mobile (KITS) app or the KTMB website for quick and easy cashless transactions.
The new ETS Express train services from August 1, 2024, are as follows (all times are in Malaysian time, one hour ahead of Thailand):

Additionally, KTMB opened the new Segamat station, the fifth-largest city in Johor, on May 15, as part of the Gemas-Johor Bahru Electrified Double-Tracking Rail Project (Gemas-JB EDTP), expected to complete in 2025. The current ETS schedule up to November 30, 2024, does not include services to Segamat, with ETS trains ending at Gemas. However, KTM Intercity diesel trains still serve Segamat with six daily Ekspres Selatan trains between Gemas and JB Sentral and two daily Ekspres Rakyat Timuran trains between Tumpat and JB Sentral.
