No Plans To Extend ETS To East Coast
KUALA LUMPUR, July 14 (Bernama) -- There are currently no plans to extend the Electric Train Service (ETS) to the east coast, according to Transport Minister Anthony Loke.
He said that the east coast railway lines are single-track and lack the electrification infrastructure necessary for ETS operations.
'The east coast is currently served only by Diesel Multiple Units (DMU) because Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) tracks there are single-track and not electrified…but, the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) project will serve that region.'
