ETS which stands for Electric Train Service is an inter-city rail service operated by the Malaysian national railway operator Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad. It is the fastest metre gauge train service in Malaysia that currently operates along the electrified and double-tracked stretch of the West Coast Line between Gemas and Padang Besar on the Malaysia-Thai border. The ETS train schedule in Malaysia can be categorized into the Gemas - Padang Besar and Padang Besar - Gemas routes.
The trains travel up to 140 km/h (87 mph) on an electrified metre gauge rail line. Therefore, the ETS can be classified as a Higher Speed Rail train service. However these services use the 1,067mm (3 ft 6 in) gauge. In view of this, it is possible that the KTM ETS service is the only inter-city rail line recorded in the world using 1,000 mm 3 ft 3 3⁄8 in) metre gauge at the maximum speed of 140 km/h.
