Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar of Johor left for the 223rd meeting of the Conference of Rulers in Kuala Lumpur, which begins on Wednesday, by a train which he drove himself.
The Sultan, accompanied by palace officials, departed JB Sentral at 9.15am by the KTM commuter Ekspres Rakyat, carrying nearly 350 passengers.
A KTM statement said the Sultan would drive the train up to Kluang station, where he will take a rest.
He will resume to drive the train at Seremban and will be at the wheel until the train reaches KL Sentral.
This is the second time the Sultan has driven a passenger train since passing his locomotive driving licence after a three-day expedition last year.
The Sultan will be shown KTM’s latest electric train at KL Sentral.
The KTM electric train service plies the Seremban-Kuala Lumpur-Ipoh route with locomotives travelling up to 160km per hour. - Bernama
