Last Train to Penang Hill



Penang Hill's iconic funicular train will make it's last run today after 87 years. The red Swiss made funicular trains will be replaced by a RM 63 million upgraded system, which is expected to be completed in September 2010.

CJ Jimmy Leow spoke to some of the foothill station traders and some expressed dismay at the lost of business but some said that they are looking forward to better facilities and increase of visitors once the upgrade system is in place.
