Once, my mother and I ride the night train this March 2018, from Gua Musang to Johor Bahru. The generator coach died at Kuala Krai, we are unable to move for 12 hours straight and there's no food coach. We're arrived extremely late. Around 5PM at Johor Bahru. That sucks. Lel

[@HBC101TVStudios]

No buffet coach? you must be kidding me! Why though?

[@ismailaziz5508]

Saya tak suka naik bas ekspres, MRT, LRT atau ETS sebab tak dapat melihat pemandangan di sekeliling kita yang bersih, cantik dan nyaman sepanjang perjalanan.

[@samuelselvarajselladurai2960]

Looks like there is a massive track replacement going on in East Coast.

[@alvinhokokonn7218]

This year May i tried ride ERT 26 from Gemas to Tumpat and it went smoothly, but ERT 27 from Kuala Lipis to Kluang the loco almost fail in Kluang, Johor. The loco is Class 25 EMD "25111-Pulau Redang"

As far as I know, 2014 massive flood damaged much of the old station (also some halts and tracks) so it was replaced.....

[@DanielQihuaiNg]

Hehe, bab buka pintu ni... jgn terang2 sangat :)

[@octavielbrian9902]

Thats y we need ECRL.. lol,,, This East Cost Railways meh mcm dalam hutan dan pedalaman, Klau track melalui urban area baru ada penumpang byk.. huhu When i see this, rasa mcm besar perbezaan kemajuan antara barat dan timur semenanjung... Pity East Coast :(

[@DanielQihuaiNg]

It's called Jungle Railway for that reason :) Penumpang kurang? Have you took this train for yourself? There are some kampungs on this line no other land transportation could reach conveniently, and the shuttle trains are their only means of transportation to bigger towns. Still, I agree we need ECRL. ECL is best kept like this, with diesel trains for a more relaxing trip through the lush tropical jungle, as a tourist attraction.

[@octavielbrian9902]

Daniel Qihuai Ng New Fed Gov claimed there are no passengers and not economics.. hhaaha

Daniel Qihuai Ng Yeah i am just dsspointed they denied the development rights in East Coast region.. They just focused in West Coast :(

[@bayudwiotista1951]

Is it possible in Malaysia to take the train at the bordes?

[@DanielQihuaiNg]

What do you mean at the borders?

[@bayudwiotista1951]

sorry, that means the door of the train. in Indonesian railfans, call it bordes. hehehe. :D

[@DanielQihuaiNg]

Hahaha I see your point. The rule is, you can't open the door of the train when it is moving. At least officially. :)

[@bayudwiotista1951]

yes brother, I saw that in Malaysia it was still possible to open the door on the train and record it, if in Indonesia it is definitely reprimanded by train officers (conductor, etc)

[@HBC101TVStudios]

@@bayudwiotista1951 it is officially reprimanded by train officers i.e. ticket conductors but if you really want to record the outdoors of the train from the door you have to do it discreetly

[@muhamadnajib9861]

Delay 3 jam?? Dugaan... adakah Pilot Loco yg sama juga digunakan utk ERT Tumpat-JB??

[@DanielQihuaiNg]

Utk railwayfan delay bukan dugaan... delay adalah kurniaan :) Loko yg sama, drebar tukar

[@ARIS22442]

Bagi orang awam yang bukan railwayfan, memang diorang mementingkan masa dan nak cepat ja. Tetapi bagi railwayfan, lambat ke atau tidak mereka tidak kisah asalkan dapat merasai lama dalam tren.

[@amirsyafiq7563]

Hello sir... Can i ask you one question... What camera do you use to record video ? The video very clearly n can zoom.. I guess , thats not from fon camera. Thank you... Hope you have a nice journey . 😊

[@DanielQihuaiNg]

Haha, saya guna 2 kamera dlm trip ni... Nikon P520 utk video close up, kalau nak zoom lebih, saya pakai Panasonic HC-V380 :)

[@HBC101TVStudios]

@@DanielQihuaiNg In terms of features and camera performance, which would you recommend though? The HC-V110 or the HC-V380? Because I recently watched VWestlife's review video about the HC-V110 and his opinion about the cam is a mixed bag - 1080p footage is best in good lighting and low-light sensitivity is OK but it can only charge the battery through USB, the microphone sounds muffled, and the electronic image stabilizer is useless beyond 10X zoom.. So far does your HC-V380 has the same cons as the HC-V110?

[@matiq3150]

[@MrZanal87]

nak tanya apa bende ye yg driver tren tu sambar dan masta tu sambar dri bawah yer

[@DanielQihuaiNg]

Benda ni... :) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Token_(railway_signalling)

[@megatgrant7877]

MrZanal87 kunci dan kebenaran berlepas antara satu station ker station yang lain sebab bermula dari stesen gemas berakhirnya perkhidmatan tren elektrik ets,menuju ke pantai timur atau selatan menggunakan tren shuttle atau diesel tren,kunci tersebut berfungsi sebagai pas kebenaran kepada tren untuk memasuki kawasan station di arah pantai timur atau selatan kerana tiada komunikasi elektronik seperti tren ets yang dikawal di kl sentral dan mengelakkan tren melakukan trip yang tidak sah

[@DanielQihuaiNg]

Betul :) Gemas - Johor Bahru tak menggunakan sistem token kunci. Hanya Laluan Pantai Timur. Fungsi token kunci ini adalah untuk mengelakkan pertembungan antara tren, dengan menghalang dua tren berada di suatu landasan yang sama.

Because there's no new engines

[@azlanbinismail]

Token tu kunci bagi keretapi melalui 'single track atau landasan tunggal '. Tanpa token atau kunci itu keretapi tidak boleh melalui landasan yang satu itu kerana dikhuatiri akan berlaku kemalangan jika ada keretapi lain yang melalui landasan itu.

B for Branch Line

Sembang... Ingat murah ka nak buat keretapi laju? Tumpat JB 4 jam, mesti tiket mahal macam naik flight. Naik flight pulak 1 jam lebih saja, lebih baik nak flight ja. Keretapi lama "jungle train" ni la yang dapat menarik pelancong utk menikmati keindahan ciptaan Tuhan di bumi Malaysia ini. Asyik nak laju ja, mcm mana nak menikmati pemandangan sepanjang jalan?
