Kuala Lipis Railway Station


Kuala Lipis Railway Station

We dropped by Kuala Lipis Railway Station during our Kuala Lipis trip in 2013.

Kuala Lipis Railway Station was built in 1926 during British Colonial era. The railway station still exists and operates satisfactorily.

There were two youngsters sitting at the platform. Not sure whether they were waiting for the arrival of the train or just hangout there.

The ticket counter already closed when we arrived at Kuala Lipis Railway Station. If not we were able to ask the officer on duty about the information of the historical railway station.

The wooden building of Kuala Lipis Railway Station is still preserved in good condition.

Don't know the reason KTM does not upgrade the railway station. Maybe KTM wishes to turn the railway station as a site for remembrance. On the other hand maybe KTM is running out of capital due to depreciation of Ringgit Malaysia.
