how long does it takes for a KTM train from Johor Bahru to KL Sentral?

Travel Tips
According to their website

Train No. / Name Departure Arrival
2 - EKSPRES RAKYAT 0934 1540
6 - EKSPRES SINARAN PETANG 1401 2025
12 - EKSPRES SENANDUNG MLM 2328 0656

The average time is around 7 hours. Assuming it is KTM. If it was the orient express, I would not know.

I have taken the train rom butterworth to KL and I took a cabin due to time factor. I have an early meeting and I took the night train with a cabin. I got there fresh and rested for my meeting and feeling a little nostalgic. I used to take the train as a kid with the grand parents before.

The nay sayers will disuade you from taking the train, however its not all that bad especially when you are not travelling alone.

Good luck

P.S if its the orient express, share the experiece if you go on it. Source(s): http://www.ktmb.com.my/

tht will take u more than13 hrs
bus will take about 7 hrs.i don't know ktm,sorry
I will advice you against taking KTM. It will be too long of a journey. Bus will be cheaper and faster, and you still get to see the countryside. There are lots of bus companies out there. Check them out. They range for comfortable to exclusive.
Is abt 6 hrs i took it b4 but they nvr reach on time...
Find out more from this site - the main rail operator in Malaysia. You are more likely to be on the following services:

1) Ekspres Rakyat (ER/02) - Daily express train from Singapore - Sentral Kuala Lumpur
2) Ekspres Sinaran Petang (XSP/06) - Express train from Singapore - Sentral Kuala Lumpur
3) Ekspres Senandung Malam (SM/12) - Express train from Singapore - Sentral Kuala Lumpur

Two other lines run from Johor to KL too, but they take ages really. Coach is still the preferred means for such journey (not to mention it's more cost-efficient too!)
