Was the former last destination for Keretapi Tanah Melayu, where the tracks once runs from Bangkok in Thailand, through Peninsular Malaysia all the way to Tanjong Pagar at Singapore. It is now owned by Singaporean Government after Malaysia transfer the ownership of the land to Singapore in exchange of another piece of land. The building and surrounding area is awashed in history; from the four statues depicting acronym for the Federated Malaya States Railway and the main economic activities, through the giant murals inside the building showing the everyday life of people in Malay Archipelago. The site is said to be renovated for newer purpose and will not be demolished.

Looking forward to the new opening. Pls keep it as original as possible.

Was lucky to check this place out when the main gate was open. Impressive structure. standing inside the building, one could feel the nostalgia, imagining the hustle and bustle that used to perpetrate the station.

It is such a shame this historic station has been shut down. I used to regularly use the KTMB train service between Singapore and Johor in the early to mid 2000s. It was a cheap and relaxing way to get into Singapore especially in the early morning. No traffic and short immigration ques. But it is no longer a missed opportunity for a modern commuter train service between Johor and Singapore. Returning to the station of an evening always felt like a huge amount of hectic stress left you as you walked into the lovely ticket hall and made your way to the food court for a quick drink before boarding the train to Johor. It allways felt like you had arrived in Malaysia before you got on the train. So relaxing and stress free way to travel. Such a shame its gone. Hopefully the old ticket hall will be preserved as it is orginal from the lines opening and showcases life in Singapore from the days before world war 2!

The KTM Station remains closed to the public. There are fences up to the street. Still, the sculptures a worth visiting quick, the architecture is quite a feat!

Appears to be inaccessible to the public. Some construction is going on as of Dec 2018. Nice architecture and good reminder of the historical past. Hope it will be opened to visit as museum in the future.

Looking forward to completing the CIRCLE, the former KTM railway station becomes the Cantonment MRT station in Circle Line.

Old train station/ railroad. Can walk here with a very nice trail from Bouna Vista (long walk). Good for walking/ running or cycle exercise.

Used to take train here in my younger days to Malaysia. Really hate to see it gone forever.

Unfortunately, I'm definitely too young to have any experience with the former train station, but I did get to visit the place after it was open as a site attraction. According to David, seems like you can't get in anymore. I saw construction related buildings as well while I was passing by on the express way.

Tanjong Pagar railway station, also called Singapore railway station or Keppel Road railway station, is a former railway station located at 30 Keppel Road in Singapore. The station was the southern terminus of the network operated by Keretapi Tanah Melayu (KTM), the main railway operator in Malaysia, until 30 June 2011 when the station ceased operations with relocation of the KTM station to Woodlands Train Checkpoint. The land on which the station and the KTM railway tracks stood was originally owned by KTM and over which Malaysia had partial sovereignty. This arrangement lasted until 30 June 2011, when rail service to Tanjong Pagar was ended and the land reverted to Singapore. Upon its closure and final service, the last train out of Tanjong Pagar was driven by Sultan Ibrahim Ismail of Johor, whose grandfather, Ismail of Johor, had opened the causeway between Singapore and Malaya in 1923. The Sultan had to learn how to drive a train before he was able to perform this task, receiving training from KTM. Two drivers accompanied him to ensure safety. The main building of the railway station was gazetted as a national monument on 9 April 2011, completing one of the objectives of the new Points of Agreement between Malaysia and Singapore. The building is in a richly ornamented Art Deco style. On its exterior are four reliefs of white marble, allegories of Agriculture, Industry, Commerce and Transport. They are works by Angiolo Vannetti, a sculptor from Florence, Italy. The hall has a barrel vault roof. Inside the main public hall, the walls bear panels with scenes depicting economic activities that were historically significant in Malaya: rice planting, rubber tapping, shipping activities, bullock cart transport, copra growing and tin mining. These panels and the original floor slabs were manufactured locally, using rubber to deaden noise. The two long platforms were capable of accommodating the longest mail trains, covered by umbrella reinforced concrete roofs. Tanjong Pagar and Outram Park MRT stations are approximately 1 km from the Tanjong Pagar railway station. It also will be a future site for Cantonment MRT station, one of the stations for Circle MRT line Stage 6.

(Translated by Google) It seemed impossible to enter because of the construction of a station of a circular line in the basement of the old station. The building part of the former station remains, but the platform seemed to be demolished. (Original) 旧駅の地下に環状線の駅を建設する工事のため、立ち入りできないようでした。 旧駅の建物部分は残っていますが、プラットホームは取り壊されているようでした。

(Translated by Google) I stayed at the station hotel at this station until 1992. Because the ceiling was high, it was a spacious room that would cost twice as much electricity for cooling. I miss the atmosphere before this train departs. I also miss the 1st floor Chinese restaurant. (Original) 1992年くらいまでよくこの駅のステーションホテルに泊まりました。天井が高いので冷房の電気代が倍は掛かりそうな広々とした部屋でした。この列車が出発する前の雰囲気が懐かしいです。１Fの中華料理屋も懐かしいです。

(Translated by Google) This is a very old photo, but I will post it here. It ’s a wonderful building. Now (as of August 2019), it seems that the scenery from here cannot be enjoyed due to subway construction or something. (Original) かなり以前の写真ですが、掲載しておきます。 素晴らしい建物です。 今(2019年8月現在)は、地下鉄工事か何かのために、ここからの景色が楽しめないようです。

So happy to see this KTM station in Singapore and is very old station.

Historical train station. Now under renovation.
