Shabby station


Windows and the ceiling are broken and unkept.

THE once majestic Ipoh Railway Station on Jalan Panglima Bukit Gantang is in desperate need of attention. Grand plans to redevelop it and the surrounding areas appear to have stalled.

Commuters arriving via KTM Bhd’s Electric Train Service (ETS) at the station in Perak’s capital city of Ipoh are greeted by a gloomy sight of broken ceiling panels, dirty floors, filthy toilets and fans, and bird droppings in many spots.
