ETS yang saya naiki bertolak dari KL Sentral pada jam 9.20 pagi dan tiba pada jam 11.16 pagi di Stesen Kampar, 3 minit lebih awal daripada jangkaan dalam jadual perjalanan. Perjalanan hampir 2 jam ini cukup selesa dan tiba di destinasi tepat pada masanya. MOT & KTMB bertekad untuk terus memperluaskan perkhidmatan ETS ke Selatan Semenanjung serta mempertingkatkan mutu perkhidmatannya untuk manfaat rakyat dan negara.
