KTM Train from Singapore to Malacca

Although not the most direct route, it is possible to catch a train from Singapore to Malacca (Melaka) most of the way!

The first thing you have to do is take one of the new Shuttle Trains from Woodlands Station in Singapore to JB Sentral Station in Johor Bahru.

You then have to travel via Tampin railway station (also known as Pulau Sebang station) and then catch a bus or taxi to Melaka, located around 38 kilometres away (23 miles).

****Please Note: From July 2015, all KTM Intercity trains will no longer be departing from Woodlands Station in Singapore, but will now originate from JB Sentral Station in Johor Bahru.

Trains between Singapore and JB will now be operated by a new Shuttle Train Service.

Please see our Singapore to JB Trains page for more information and departure times >


If you don't quite like the idea of this trip to Malacca by train, you can catch a direct bus from Singapore, straight to Melaka Town.
