i think its still used by KTM.
want to go on tracks at the station might be an issue
other parts of the malaysian rail, no issue, at own risk.

you guys might want to try the adjoining railway yard that is along Kampong Bahru road... you can get onto the tracks there, from the small Hindu temple... just cut across Spottiswoode Park estate to get there... although there is a sign prohibiting photography so enter at your own risk cause I will not take responsibility...

Hi, i asked around there before due to a model shoot, and if you want to take photos near to the rails or tracks area, (anywhere inside the gate), you will have to seek permission through writing a letter, and i think paying too (hundreds??), and the time for approval will be months in advance.

Hi all

There is limited access in at Tg Pagar station esp where the passengers embark and disembark.

The area is accessible but it means illegal entry is actually the railway tracks just in front of Spottiswoode Park. This is where the freight trains are docked and passenger cars stationed to be cleaned.

I did shoot some 3 weeks ago and was asked to stop.

Pl note that area is the property of the Malaysian gah ment so the KTM officers have the right to shoo off anyone.

All the best.
