The Golden Chersonese train poster, Malaysia, 1930


The 'Golden Chersonese', a name for the Malay Peninsula, separates the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, extending roughly north-south for just over 1,000 km (600 miles) from the narrowest part of S.E. Asia. The whole railway system is metre-gauge, apart from a standard gauge line to the airport in Kuala Lumpur.
