KTM Shuttle Tebrau 95dn Last Train from JB Sentral to Woodlands CIQ at 10.45pm

KTM Shuttle Tebrau 95dn is the last train of the day from JB Sentral to Woodlands CIQ at 10.45pm. On a Sunday night, the Shuttle Tebrau 95dn still remains popular to beat the Causeway traffic and human jams, and that’s also my idea to beat the jams with the Shuttle Tebrau.

Johor Bahru Sentral Railway Station (JB Sentral)

Heading in to JB Sentral after dinner to catch my Shuttle Tebrau 95dn.

Pretty much most passengers had arrived way earlier than required since both Johor Bahru City Square and Komtar JBCC closes at 10pm.

Shuttle Tebrau JB Sentral Gate A

The queue forming at JB Sentral Gate A way before 30 minutes prior to departure.

Disregarding my own advice about not needing to rush, I joined the queue anyway as I wanted to use the toilet at the waiting room after immigration.

KTM Shuttle Tebrau boarding at JB Sentral Gate A is by scanning your passport at the Shuttle Tebrau Automatic Control Gate (ACG).

Malaysia Immigration

Malaysia Immigration is done at JB Sentral for the Shuttle Tebrau. Immigration counters are available on both sides after walking down the middle aisle.

Waiting Room

The waiting room was still largely empty as I was one of the first passengers to clear immigration.

Nevertheless, after my toilet visit, here’s the crowd waiting to board Shuttle Tebrau 95dn.

ASC (ICF-Padu Sedia)

4 ASC (ICF-Padu Sedia) coaches are attached on my Shuttle Tebrau 95dn. The Shuttle Tebrau is free seating with a capacity of 240 seats and 80 standees.

Very surprisingly, my Shuttle Tebrau 95dn departed 4 minutes before time at 10.41pm as all passengers had boarded.

Johor-Singapore Causeway

Crossing the Malaysia-Singapore international border on the Johor-Singapore Causeway.

Heading in to Woodlands Train Checkpoint (Woodlands CIQ).

My Shuttle Tebrau 95dn arrived 4 minutes before time at 10.46pm. This also technically makes the net journey time on this Shuttle Tebrau 95dn train only 1 minute, factoring in scheduled departure time.

Woodlands Train Checkpoint (Woodlands CIQ)

Singapore immigration and customs are cleared at Woodlands Train Checkpoint (Woodlands CIQ). No photos or videos are allowed to be taken inside Woodlands Train Checkpoint (Woodlands CIQ).

From here, I continued my journey to Woodlands MRT Station by us to make the last trains back home.
