Where The Track Leads Us

The North Borneo Railway, together with other rail services, have been operating relentlessly on the current network of rail and bridges for decades.

As the popularity of these services grew, frequency of use have increased, but the infrastructure has grown little.

A thorough check-up, upgrade and overall maintenance made it inevitable and unavoidable that the only rail network on Borneo is currently under renovation by the authorities for this maintenance.

The North Borneo Railway will be out of commission until further notice.

Please do visit again for updates.

The interruption of service is greatly regretted and the prolonged closure of the North Borneo Railway is out of our hands, but we appreciate your continued support and look forward to continuing the tradition of the North Borneo Railway.

The North Borneo Railway is the oldest running steam train in Sabah and Borneo, running two weekly return departures from Kota Kinabalu to Papar year round. A popular Sabah tourist attraction, the journey lasts approximately 4 hours and passengers can experience the lush landscape of the coastal and rural regions of Kota Kinablau, Sabah.
