Talk:Kuala Lumpur railway station

message: In the title of the article it says "Arabic" and then it has the Jawi script which has the malay name. This is therefore incorrect because an Arabic reader may be able to read it but the Malay language would be unknown to them.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.181.156.121 (talk) 07:20, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Arabic ? No it's Malay written using Arabic Script, Jawi 

message: I've taken the liberty of going through edits made by User:Birdhurst and User:Earth, and undone or revised many of the changes as certain passages were rephrased to the point that they have lost their original meanings (i.e. attribution of a date to a station instead of a railway line) and are grammatically incorrect in British English standards (The Kuala Lumpur station is actually "located on" a road? How about the suggestion that the Puduraya bus station and the Maybank Tower exists alongside the Sultan Street Station, which was demolished before the two building's construction even broke ground?), not to mention a few changes that goes against WP:MOS (bold titles are typically not advised to be linked unless they include complicated naming). - Two hundred percent 09:12, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: "Located on" a road is a perfectly fine statement despite the oddness of it. It is one of those quirky English expressions. __earth (Talk) 17:35, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

KUALA LUMPUR 22 Ogos – Apa sudah jadi dengan bangunan Stesen Kereta Api Tanah Melayu (KTMB) di Jalan Sultan Hishamuddin - bangunan warisan kebangsaan yang kini tinggal terbiar?
Bangunan yang dibina pada 1885 berdasarkan seni bina ‘Moorish’ dan menjadi tumpuan orang ramai ekoran seni binanya yang unik itu, kini sepi berbanding enam tahun lalu.
Bangunan yang dianggap sebagai khazanah negara itu dikatakan semakin diabaikan sejak tahun 2001 apabila pusat operasi utama stesen kereta api dipindahkan ke Stesen Sentral Kuala Lumpur, yang lebih canggih dan moden.
Jika sebelum ini bangunan yang menempatkan restoran dan kedai-kedai menjual pelbagai barangan itu menjadi tumpuan orang ramai, ia kini sekadar menjadi tempat persinggahan pengguna perkhidmatan komuter.
Tinjauan Utusan Malaysia di stesen itu hari ini mendapati ia tidak dijaga dan diselenggara dengan baik.
Terdapat banyak cermin bangunan yang pecah, besi buruk diletakkan di tempat laluan orang ramai malah lebih menyedihkan terdapat juga najis manusia di kawasan pejalan kaki.
Orang ramai yang ditemui melahirkan rasa kesal dengan keadaan stesen itu dan mahu langkah segera diambil untuk memelihara serta menjaga bangunan tersebut seperti yang dilakukan ke atas Stadium Negara dan Stadium Merdeka.
Seorang pelajar Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (Unimas), Nurarima Suardi, 22, terkejut dengan keadaan dalam bangunan itu yang kelihatan seperti bangunan terbengkalai dan bukannya stesen kereta api lama yang penuh dengan nilai sejarah.
“Sudah lama saya tidak datang ke sini dan tidak menyangka sama sekali ia (stesen) menjadi seperti ini, sekali gus menyebabkan pelancong yang mengunjunginya mempunyai persepsi tidak baik terhadap aspek kebersihan di negara ini,” katanya di sini, hari ini.
Bangunan yang dibina semasa zaman British dan diubah suai mencontohi konsep stesen kereta api Victoria Station di Britain itu mula beroperasi sebagai stesen kereta api pada 1910.
Ketika itu, ia dikenali sebagai Stesen Residensi kerana terletak dalam kawasan Residen British.
Selepas era British, stesen itu kekal menjadi nadi kepada sistem pengangkutan negara terutama untuk membawa barang dagangan seperti getah sebelum digunakan sebagai pengangkutan awam yang menghubungkan destinasi tertentu dan menjadi pusat rangkaian kereta api utama.
Sementara itu, seorang kakitangan kerajaan, Nik Mohd. Fadli Nik Mat, 24, berkata, pihak yang berwajib perlu melakukan sesuatu agar bangunan itu kembali dikunjungi orang ramai sama ada untuk menggunakan perkhidmatannya atau melawat bangunan warisan tersebut.
“Pengurusan Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) boleh menyediakan sebuah ruang pameran mengenai sejarah kereta api di negara ini serta menganjurkan aktiviti untuk menarik perhatian orang ramai termasuk pelancong,’’ ujarnya.
Seorang kakitangan swasta yang sering menggunakan stesen itu, Rosli Ismail, 43, turut kesal kerana tiada perubahan dilakukan oleh pihak bertanggungjawab untuk mengubah keadaan di stesen yang semakin suram itu.
“Pengurusan KTMB diharap dapat membuat sesuatu bagi menarik kembali pengunjung seperti menyewakan kedai-kedai sedia ada dengan kadar sewa yang murah,” katanya.
Sementara itu, pelajar bidang Perhubungan Awam, Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM), Wan Yuneeza Wan Mohd. Yusof, 28, berkata, stesen itu tidak lagi menjadi tumpuan pengunjung ekoran keadaannya yang kotor selain ketiadaan kedai- kedai kraf tangan dan cenderamata.
“Saya juga kesal kerana tidak ada pejabat pengurusan di dalam bangunan untuk memberi maklumat dan perkhidmatan yang mungkin diperlukan orang ramai, menunjukkan pihak pengurusan tidak begitu peka terhadap kepentingan pengguna stesen itu,” ujarnya.

message: The statement that the first station was called Residents station is incorrect. The First Station was called simply Kuala Lumpur and was built in 1886 for the Selangor Railway. The Residency station was built in 1891 in the residency grounds which were about a mile further north on the new line from Kuala Lumpur to Rawang which opened on 7th November 1892 from another new station on the site of the present Kuala Lumpur old station. At this time the original Selangor Railway station was reverted for use as a Goods station (reference 1935 FMSR published book titled "Fifty years of the Malayan Railway". 
As stated above the actual location of Residency station was almost certainly at the point where Maxwell Road (which led to the Residency) crossed the railway line to Rawang. This spot is now occupied by Putra station. By 1925 it appears to have been renamed Maxwell Road station, located at milepost 240½, and another new station  was located at the Padang at milepost 241¾. By 1929 a new deviation had been built between Kuala Lumpur and Maxwell Road taking the line a little further west and through a tunnel, thus bypassing Padang station which then closed. The evidence for this is a number of dated maps for the years 1922, 1925, 1929 and 1933 and FMSR documents. It is not clear when the actual name change took place but William George Maxwell moved into one of the the Residency buildings in 1920, details and dates can be found in the Journal of the Malaysian Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society on JSTOR.
The 1892 Kuala Lumpur station was completely rebuilt in 1910 on the same site ( reference the 1935 FMSR book , which also contains numerous photographs of all the buildings and has lots of other useful information.
