Singapore - Getting There By Rail
Rail services: Trains depart daily for destinations in Malaysia, including Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bahru and a daily service to Kluang. Air-conditioned express trains to Kuala Lumpur leave three times a day (journey time - 7 hours). The journey to Johor Bahru takes around 50 minutes with six daily departures (four express). Keppel Road is also the departure point for the three-day Eastern & Oriental Express (tel: 6395 0678; www.orient-express.com) to Kuala Lumpur, Butterworth, Penang, Kwai, and Bangkok.
Transport to the city: The railway station is not served by the MRT (Mass Rapid Transit), although Tanjong Pagar MRT is a 20-minute walk away. Buses can be infrequent so the best way into the city is to queue for a taxi or telephone for one (see Taxis in Getting Around).
