Rantau Panjang railway station

The Rantau Panjang railway station was a Malaysian railway station located near Jalan Besar and named after the town of Rantau Panjang, Kelantan.

Opened in 1921, it is located on the Rantau Panjang branch line, branching off from the main KTM East Coast Line at Pasir Mas.

[1] The station was previously served by both Keretapi Tanah Melayu and State Railway of Thailand trains.

Later, Thai diesel multiple units (DMUs) took up the entire schedule, which rose unexpected numbers of passengers, resulting in protests by the railcar drivers against terminating the DMU services at Wakaf Bharu and Tumpat.

[citation needed] The protests led to the discontinuation of the cross-border SRT services in 1978[2][3] and the station fell into disuse.[when?]
