Salam,

Last time, on my other blog, I had wrote on my experience taking the ETS train from Ipoh to KL. I had the great experience though. But now, I want to, sort of, made a review on this great service offered by the KTMB.

So, what is ETS?

ETC stands for Electronic Train Service, launched in 2010. It first route was between Ipoh (Perak) to KL Sentral (Kuala Lumpur) to Seremban (Negeri Sembilan), but will be extending throughout the west side on Malaysia to Padang Besar and Johor Bahru.

About the Train and Service.

It fast. Actually it not lah as fast as the one in China, but we Malaysians had small country so this train was already good enough for us. It can go about 160kmph on top speed. Maybe because the design of the train and the rail was not made to go too fast.

Mostly it runs between 140 to 160 km/h.

It also very accurate in time yaww. Normally, it will only late for like 5 minutes and below. However, I’m not guaranteed this okay, you know, even in country like Japan, problem might happen~who knows~Every ticket will stated the time you’ll depart and time you will arrive. And also the time estimated for the journey. And I’ve been riding for 3 times all are very sharp in timing

There are 2 types of train available. Express train and Shuttle train. Obviously the Express train will be faster than Shuttle train rite?!haha~Because the Express train will stop to other stations lesser in its journey. The estimated time for Express is 1 hour 45 minutes, Shuttle 2 hours and 15 minutes.

Comparisons with other public transportations.
