25/10/2016 [KTM] Padang Besar Trip

Going to Padang Besar to see off International Express one last time, before it is cancelled forever at the end of 2016. Big thanks to Bukit Ketri's station master for allowing me into Platform 3 for the E&O. He himself is a railwayfan; as E&O passes through Bukit Ketri, he was shooting at it on the platform bridge. Joining me at the second half of the day was my friend from UTHM, Jason, and we explored Padang Besar together. He went back to his home in Kuala Kangsar onboard EG9215.
