Kluang Station, a view from Platform 2, showing the location marker and a tamping machine on the tracks. |
This time we arrived on Thursday, and unfortunately for me, the canteen was closed. Since I could not do much there, with the station less crowded, I was able to sit and sketch from Platform 2 of this station. This is a major stop for the KTM trains heading to Singapore or the Northern regions.
Since the station building was crowded with cars parked haphazardly, I decided to paint the scenery across the tracks, of the location marker and the locomotive-like machine on its tracks. This is actually a Unimat-Compact universal tamping machine by Plasser-Theurer used
to maintain railway tracks. It helps to raise the rails, compact the gravel beneath, and levels the rail off mechanically.
