Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) has announced that additional Electric Train Service (ETS) will be made available to consumers in conjunction with this year’s Hari Raya Aidilfitri celebration. At the same time, it also introduced a special train service for the occasion, known as Ekspres Khas Keluarga Malaysia, which will cover the east coast locations of Malaysia.
The national rail operator says that a total of 4,368 and 516 tickets have been prepared for the additional ETS and special train service respectively. It added that this initiative, which is a collaboration between KTMB and the ministry of transportation, aims to accommodate the high demand from consumers, especially those who are planning to travel back to their hometowns for the upcoming festive season.
