This poster encourages the viewer to visit Malaya through rail, specifically through the Federated Malay States Railway. The line was extensive, spanning from Singapore to the south to Padang Besar to the north. The poster advertises “an attractive reduced first class single fare” for ocean passengers. The train line ran day and night express trains, had dining cars, sleepers and electric fans.
