Walk along the KTM tracks


~~30 June 2010, the last KTM (Keretapi Tanah Melayu) train left Tanjong Pagar Railway to Malaysia.~~


The Tanjong Pagar Railway Station will now be part of Singapore's history where KTM trains used to depart from and to Malaysia. Most of the 26km link from Tanjong Pagar to Woodlands were still accessible to people till 17 July. From 18 July, only the 3km stretch of tracks between Rifle Range Road and The Rail Mall will be open till the end of the month.


We brought the boys to the tracks near King Albert Park for a Sunday morning walk. There were already many people by the time we arrived at 9:30am. We spent about an hour walking the stretch of tracks.


Hordes of people walking and snapping pictures
