Travelling by train between Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Penang & Bangkok,
the cheap, historic, relaxed way to go...

Daily air-conditioned departures with amazingly cheap prices, comfortable sleeping berths, and great scenery. Taking the train is the safe, comfortable & adventurous way to travel overland between Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Penang and Bangkok. Unlike flying it's a real fascinating experience, and it's relaxed on a train on the traditional colonial single-track railway past palm plantations and little country stations is far more civilised than a cramped bus on an ugly modern motorway.

In contrast to a meaningless flight, or a bus journey along an ugly motorway built in the 1990s, the leisurely Singapore-Kuala Lumpur train ride takes you over the famous causeway, past lush green palm plantations and little wayside railway stations, along the old colonial Federated Malay States Railway.

The whole train journey from Singapore to Bangkok is 1,920 km. You have to catch two or three trains, depending on where you want to stop off. You have to look carefully at the timetable below and create a journey that suits you. For a fast journey with just an afternoon at leisure in Kuala Lumpur and a morning to explore Penang, you can take the train from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur in the morning, the train overnight from Kuala Lumpur to Butterworth (Penang) and then train from Butterworth overnight to Bangkok. However, we recommend stopping at Kuala Lumpur and Georgetown (Penang) for a bit longer as they are both fascinating cities.
So you can take any train you like from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur, either one of the daytime trains or the overnight sleeper train. Stop over for a day or two, then take any train you like from Kuala Lumpur to Butterworth (the station on the  mainland, next to the ferry shuttle to Penang), there's a choice of a daytime train or an overnight sleeper.
Finally, take a comfortable sleeper on the train, the International Express leaving Butterworth at lunchtime and arriving in Bangkok next morning. It's entirely up to you whether you travel from Singapore to Bangkok all in one go in 48 hours or stop off and see places on the way, as each train is booked & ticketed separately.

The main reasons people like to take a train is because during peak hours usually will have jam in major roads and highways. So taking a train can let you reach your destination faster without effecting by the heavy traffic. So many office workers chosen to take public transports especially train to allow them arrived to their office faster.
