Kuala Stabas is a premium economy class train that serves the Tanjungkarang-Baturaja and is under the auspices of KAI Regional Division IV Tanjungkarang.

Contents

The name of this train comes from a fishing village located in Krui, Pesisir Barat, Lampung, Indonesia. [1]

Operating

At the beginning of its inauguration, this train was present to support the 2018 Eid transportation with a travel duration of once a day and stopping at certain stations. [2]

However, since December 2019 this train has been running twice a day along with the removal of the Seminung and Way Umpu trains that usually crossed the Tanjungkarang-Kotabumi route. [3]

The train itself consists of five premium economy class carriages, one dining carriage, and a generator. [4]

Although this train uses a premium economy class, this train receives a subsidy from the national government since 1 January 2020 thanks to a submission from the local government. [5]
