The first line of railway in Malaya was opened in 1885. A brief 7½ miles in length, and built to the metre gauge that would become the national standard, it conveyed tin ore from mines in the northern state of Taiping to Port Weld.

The Main line between Prai (near Butterworth), in the northern part of the country and Johor Bharu, in the extreme south was eventually completed-by the joining of the last several isolated sections-in 1909. In 1918 the track extended and reach the Thai border at Padang Besar and in 1923 the island of Singapore was linked by the strategic causeway, thus rendering the Federated Malay States Railway as a national system.
