This is the first time I’ve been on the new train down Penang Hill. Normally I walk up and down but my friend wanted to go on the train where her car was parked and I have never been so I followed her. The ride takes 4 mins. I have sped up the video.
Enjoy the ride and the view x
A must watch if you have never experienced Penang Hill train ride. The ride down in fast forward is like a rollercoaster.
The ride time:Â 4.5 mins
Length 1.997 KM : Longest in Asia
Tunnel Gradient 27.9 Degrees : Steepest tunnel in the world
Operational since 1923 but upgraded in 2010
Operational hours: 6.30am – 9pm daily
The view is spectacular and the timing is impeccable as another train is seen crossing.
If you are visiting Penang, go check it out out!
