Alor Gajah railroad in ruins


Historic site: The old Alor Gajah railway station, now covered in shrubs. The only remnant of the bygone Malayan Railway in Melaka is its concrete platform.

MELAKA: A signboard with the word “Alor Gajah” and part of a forlorn concrete platform are all that is left of the railway in the state.

Covered in shrubs, the ruins of the Alor Gajah Railway station in Jalan Keretapi in Pengkalan, Alor Gajah, hardly gets any tourist visits.
