|
The total route length of KTMB’s network amounts to approximately 1670 km and is mainly single track except for about 150 km of electrified double track sections around the capital city, Kuala Lumpur, for commuter services. The signalling & communication system in KTMB is a complex mixed of equipment ranging from old antiquated mechanical signalling and open wire communication lines to modern microprocessor controlled signalling equipment fibre optic based transmission system. Traditionally KTMB’s signalling have been classified into station signalling, block signalling and level crossings. The boundaries have blurred somewhat with the introduction of new and modern systems. |
