4 hours from Gombak to KB? For real?

Do these trains have stops or lavatory in it? I don't think anyone can hold no 1 and 2 during these 4 hours travel time or find some time to eat.

Long distance trains has lavatory.

The thing is, the current railway network in terms of coverage is essentially unchanged since the British days.

Travelling between east and west coast by rail need to go all the way to Gemas. At least with the ECRL, the route would be more direct, and in terms of travel time, train with new alignment will definitely be much faster than car.

With ECRL, towns like Bentong can be closer economically to the Klang Valley and obviously it's a good thing.

But kampung what about old route? Can reduce travel time from wakaf bharu to mentakab by 5 hours+1 hour by ecrl to gombak in the future? 6 hours from Kelantan to gombak is faster than bus

But the question is how much is the ridership from KL to Terengganu?

Can RM120 recover the investment spend? Is it politically motivated just for the erection? jeng jeng jeng... biggrin.gif

The route of ecrl doesn't look efficient. Why design it like that?

To me it just looks like they want to connect port Klang with kuantan port. Then the additional route to Kelantan is just some side idea that might never be realized. It looks more like an afterthought.

when the ECRL is completed: rm120 in year 2024 would cost around rm 90 ( year 2017 currency valuation).

I would pay RM 90 to travel between Gombak- Kota Bharu for a safe 4 hour ride.In my opinion : this is much better than a bus ride and cheaper than flight.

If you are in middle class and unable to drive a car between KL- Kota Bharu: you would understand my situation.

If KL to Kuantan would be cheaper, I guess. Since it's RM 120 from KL to Tumpat. Considered a plus. Although, I think it's purpose would serve more freight than passengers.

there's mountain along the way duh.

anyway its likely true they just wanna connect klang with kuantan only, then have to add terengganu in as they are the one that gonna pay for it (through oil) then pejam mata add another 70km to thailand lah so bangso syurgo don't felt left out biggrin.gif

not practical if at the end there is no good connectivity, or convenient public transport.
Only good for once a year balik kampong!
