Al-Rasyid and the old Muar railway

Continued from A Raya family outing with the monkeys in Tanjung, Muar.


Next we went to another part of Tanjung where lies this old locomotive head.


For the record Muar used to have its own railway network which started operating about 100 years ago... before it was disbanded a few decades later. Al-Rasyid looking annoyed after being forced to pose... hehe...

The railway network is known as the Muar State Railway (M.S.R.). Note that Muar was considered as a state of its own before being turned into a district in the state of Johor (let me dispense with the Anglicised spelling Johore ya...).
