TheTanjung Malim railway station is aMalaysiantrain station stationed at the north eastern side of and named after the town ofTanjung Malim,Perak. The station provides bothKTM Komuter andKTM ETS services.
The station was first constructed in 1900 and at the time, served as a halt forKTM Intercity trains. As part of theRawang-Ipoh double tracking and electrification project, it was rebuilt in 2007 and reopened two years later, on 1 June 2009, as the final stop on the thenRawang–Tanjung Malim shuttle service of theKTM Komuter (formerly known as the Rawang–Kuala Kubu Bharu shuttle service). The service has since been merged with KTM Komuter's mainPort Klang Line, making Tanjung Malim the northern terminus of the line. The line was effectively renamed theTanjung Malim–Port Klang Line and became an integral part of theKlang Valley Integrated Transit System. Tanjung Malim station is currently the northernmost station in the Klang Valley Integrated Transit System as well the KTM Komuter Central Sector system.
On 12 August 2010, KTM ETS services were introduced to the station.
The station, unlike the four other stations along the former shuttle route, is situated along three tracks with threeplatforms. Its only similarity with the other stations on the shuttle route is that it also contains facilities normally reserved for medium-to-large stations along three or more lines. In addition to ticketing facilities and basic amenities, the station contains spaces for administrative occupants, as well as akiosk and an additional foot bridge (fused with a foot bridge exclusively for Komuter users) for pedestrians that simply intend to cross the railway lines. The station also includes low-tech support fordisabled passengers. The station exits northeast into a branch road that leads west into the town centre of Tanjung Malim.
The Tanjung Malim station's oneside platform and oneisland platform are designated as Platform 1 (adjoining the main station building at the east, intended for southbound trains), Platform 2 (at the west, intended for northbound trains), and Platform 3.
