KTMB consistently provides such promotions during every festive season in Malaysia, showcasing a commendable effort and concern for the diverse religious celebrations in the country. This thoughtful initiative is widely appreciated by all Malaysians, who are grateful for the accessibility and convenience it brings.

The provision of such facilities reflects a commitment to inclusivity and consideration for the cultural and religious diversity within the nation, fostering a sense of unity and shared celebration among the people.

“The additional ETS trips are to cater to the high demand for train tickets during festive seasons. The country’s major highways are also expected to see a high volume of traffic compared to normal days”, said KTMB.

Departing from Padang Besar at 11 am, the train is scheduled to reach KL Sentral by 4:36 pm. Conversely, the train originating from KL Sentral will leave at 5:05 pm, reaching Padang Besar by 10:34 pm. A significant number of individuals aspire to reunite with their families and loved ones in their hometowns for Deepavali celebrations. This holds particularly true for students and working professionals residing at a distance, for whom this service proves invaluable.
