MALAYAN Railways, or Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTM), is taking steps to make travelling by train to the country more attractive.

From Monday next week, it will add more coaches to its trains up north in anticipation of more commuters and to make travelling more comfortable.

There will be a total of eight trips, four departing from Singapore and four from Danga City Mall in Johor daily.

Each trip can ferry about 200 travellers as each train will have four coaches with a capacity of 52 seated passengers.

It will also add a new stop at the Danga City Mall, one of the biggest in Johor Baru, so Singaporeans who like to shop across the Causeway can have another travel option.
