KTM 22 Class Locomotive

The 22 Class Locomotive was a mainline locomotive in KTM’s fleet, frequently used during its heyday in the 1970s to early 1990s. It operated on both passenger and freight services, and was a staple throughout Peninsular Malaysia. 40 such locomotives were ordered, and were named after Malaysian cities and towns.

Before retiring from KTM service, the 22 Class locomotives worked as shunters.

The 22 Class locomotives are no longer in service for KTM.
