Penang Hill Top Station (GPS: 5.42366, 100.26937) is the highest station of the Penang Hill Funicular Railway. Located at the foot of Strawberry Hill, one of the hillocks that form Penang Hill, the station has been renovated a few times, most recently in 2015, when walkways were erected to connect it to Cliff Cafe. The older, original walkway to the Top Station has also been provided with with a shelter, for the convenience of users.

Train tickets used to be sold at the Top Station, but not anymore. Nowadays, the Lower Station sells one-way and round-trip tickets. If you want to take the train only one way, from the Top Station to the Lower Station, you board the train first, and purchase your ticket upon arrival at the Lower Station (or else you will not be allowed to exit through the turnstile).
