[quote user="Datafever"] <p>What are the primary industries for freight traffic?</p><p>Also, do most freights run at night because of the heavy passenger traffic during the day?</p><p>Thanks for the photos!!! <span class="smiley">[tup]</span> </p><p>[/quote]</p><p>there are three cement company hauling their stuff (cement, fly ash etc.) and a <a href="http://www.pttplc.com/en/default.asp">petroleum product company</a> hauling its product and raw materials. And SRT has a contract with <a href="http://www.ktmb.com.my/">KTM Berhad</a> to haul some steel trains from Padang Besar and a container service. </p><p>Yes, passenger service is very traffic intensive on some major line so they have to hold frieghts for the night. and some...decided that one cause of our notorious traffic gridlock was caused by railroad so, they had SRT throttle back some of the train traffic thru city center to 1 train per 10 minutes. What were they smoking or had they ingested?<span class="smiley">[banghead]</span><span class="smiley">[soapbox]</span> </p>
