Introduction to ETS Gold

ETS Gold offers a limited-stop service at major stations along the route it serves. It is the most common service class of ETS. Trains run as far south as Gemas, and as far north as Padang Besar, connecting with shuttle trains to Hat Yai, Thailand.

Pengenalan ETS Gold

ETS Gold menawarkan perkhidmatan terhad di stesen utama di sepanjang laluan yang disediakan. Ia adalah kelas perkhidmatan ETS yang paling biasa. Keretapi berjalan sejauh selatan seperti Gemas, dan sejauh utara sebagai Padang Besar, menghubungkan dengan keretapi ulang-alik ke Hat Yai, Thailand.

As KTM Berhad has restricted Facebook access to RailTravel Station, RailTravel Station is unable to ask first-hand information when I need clarification from KTM Berhad regarding their services. As such, in reciprocity, RailTravel Station will only provide information that is provided by KTM Berhad.

Links attached are no longer hosted on Google Drive as RailTravel Station is too often confused with the timetable provider instead of KTM. Should the links be down, it is on KTM’s servers and not on mine. Link yang dilampirkan tiada lagi di dapati di Google Drive, di atas sebab RailTravel Station terlalu kerap memuatnaik jadual perjalanan keretapi berbanding KTM. Sekiranya link tiada lagi berfungsi, ia kemungkinan berpunca dari khidmat jaringan KTM dan bukan berpunca dari website RailTravel Station.

KTM Komuter 92 Class Rolling Stock Replacement

In the event that there are no available ETS 91 Class or 93 Class train sets, the ETS Gold service will operate with KTM Komuter 92 Class train sets.

This usually happens on the KL Sentral – Ipoh trains, and sometimes on the KL Sentral – Gemas sector for trains to Gemas, requiring a transfer at KL Sentral for through passengers. Should this situation arise, there will be free seating on the train. If you are unable to find a seat, you may stand or sit on the floor for your journey.

If you travel frequently especially on the KL – Ipoh sector, you are advised to bring a foldable stool for your journey as a precautionary measure.

No catering service will be available on board.

No toilets are available on board. There may be an announced 15 minute toilet break at a station en route to the destination, usually at Tanjung Malim. Should there not be one, check with a staff if you are able to use your ETS ticket for the KTM Komuter service. If he or she allows it, alight at a KTM Komuter station with a train that serves your eventual destination to use the toilet there and get on the next KTM Komuter train to your destination.

No refunds will be provided by KTM in case of such a rolling stock replacement. Refunds are only provided to be processed at the ticket counter if you choose not to travel on the spot.
