Taiping Railway Station (GPS: 4.85207, 100.73123) is the oldest railway station in the country. The station was originally built in 1882, for the railway line between Taiping and Port Weld, in present-day Kuala Sepetang. The station was rebuilt the first time in early 1900s, to accommodate the train services between Taiping and Prai (eventually extended to Butterworth), and then between Taiping and Kuala Lumpur.
