KUALA PILAH HISTORY -14 - THE VANISHING LANDMARKS OF KP
KUALA PILAH'S
VANISHING LANDMARKS
The Bahau- KP line of FMS Railway 1 April 2010-2030
The 1910 -1920s Kuala Pilah Railway station
almost identical to the present Bahau Railway station that opened earlier but still functions
Proof that that there was a Bahau KP Rail Line
This was a Railway shed near the present market in KP ,built to cater for the 2010 line that carried goods such as the lucrative tin from Parit Tinggi to Bahau and south
The Railway shed in KPwas torn down in the 70s or so and a small shop built on the same site
This was the rai over Sungai Muar demolished before the war and later replaced by a wooden bridge. There is a very narrow road bridge now on the same site linking KP, Sawah Lebar to Parit tinggi and the Bahau road
Presumably put up by bloggers to save this 100 plus year old antique KP Railway station in a very state of repair
