The Padang Rengas railway station is a Malaysian train station located at and named after the town of Padang Rengas, Perak. This was the Southern Terminus for the  1  KTM Komuter Padang Rengas Line, until the Komuter line was extended to Ipoh on September 16, 2023.

Location and locality

[edit]

Padang Rengas is located near the Padang Rengas town at the northwest of the Kuala Kangsar district, and just ten kilometres to Kuala Kangsar town. The station is located after the southern end of Bukit Berapit tunnel.

Prior to the Komuter Northern Sector extension to Ipoh, this station attracted passengers as far as Kuala Kangsar, Sungai Siput and even Ipoh as it was the terminus for the commuter service at that time.
