Mentakab Railway Station

Mentakab railway station is on the line from the Northeast coast to the south of Peninsular Malaysia owned by the Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB). The railway from Gemas to Tumpat in Kelantan goes through this town of Mentakab.

For a person like me who never got the chance to travel by this particular transportation mode, would obviously be so “sakai” being at a railway station like this. One thing good about this station is that, it is not that crowded. There’re less than 3 passengers at the station when I was there.

Another good thing about it is that there’s no fence around the station which gives us all the freedom to venture the surrounding area including on the railway tracks themselves. It was one heck of an experience being in the middle of the track, posing ourselves out in front of he camera. Cant help but to feel like a supermodel being photographed for an international brand ! Phewittttt !

I’m sure those passengers at the station must be wondering what on earth has gotten into these 2 ladies’ head that makes them crazy enuff to be under the hot sun @ 1.00 pm, in the middle of the railway tracks. It is indeed very hot & humid being there but it just couldnt beat the thrill & excitement that were mounted up in us.

We were so lucky we’re not being chased away by the station master. I guessed he must have pitied us for being so sakai. “Biarkanlah dua beranak tu……kesian dia org. Ini kalau tak gila meroyan…..mesti kes buang tebiat nih……”

Anyway, special thanks should be given to Chu for his kind hospitality while we’re there. Thanks for your patience in putting up with our folly & craziness. Thanks a million for being the volunteered & unpaid personal photographer ( whose talent & creativity are not that bad at all ! ). Last but not least, terima kasih daun keladi……..
