👉 Krung Thep Aphiwat Central Terminal in the context of Airport Rail Link (Bangkok)

The Airport Rail Link (ARL) (Thai: รถไฟฟ้าแอร์พอร์ต เรล ลิงก์) is an airport rail link line in Bangkok Metropolitan Region connecting Suvarnabhumi Airport to the city center. The commuter rail line starts at Suvarnabhumi station underneath the airport terminal, before ascending onto an elevated viaduct to Lat Krabang station where it meets the eastern line railway station of the same name. (Each Airport Rail Link station, except Suvarnabhumi and Ratchaprarop stations, is located above an eastern line railway station.) The line continues west, directly running above the eastern line railway for the rest of the line. It runs towards Ban Thap Chang station, then towards Hua Mak station where it meets Yellow Line, then towards Ramkhamhaeng station, then towards Makkasan station where it meets Blue Line, then towards Ratchaprarop station, then towards Phaya Thai station where the line terminates and meets Sukhumvit Line. It is owned by State Railway of Thailand (SRT) and, since 2021, operated by Asia Era One Company Limited. The 28.6-kilometer (17.8 mi)-long Airport Rail Link opened for service on 23 August 2010.

Kuala Lumpur Sentral Station (KL Sentral) is a transit-oriented development that houses the main railway station of Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia. Opened on 16 April 2001, KL Sentral replaced the old Kuala Lumpur railway station as the city's main inter-city railway station. KL Sentral is the largest railway station in Malaysia, and also in Southeast Asia from 2001 to 2021, before Krung Thep Aphiwat Central Terminal in Bangkok, Thailand was completed.

KL Sentral is designed as an intermodal transport hub. All of Kuala Lumpur's passenger rail lines serve KL Sentral except the Ampang line, Sri Petaling line, Shah Alam line and Putrajaya line. Passengers can catch intercity trains serving many locations across Peninsular Malaysia to places such as Johor Bahru, Ipoh and Butterworth, as well as special monthly excursion trains towards Thailand. It was also designed to be a new business and financial hub for Kuala Lumpur.
