High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Rail transport in Singapore exists in three main types, namely an international rail connection operated by Malaysian company Keretapi Tanah Melayu, a rapid transit system collectively known as the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system operated by the two biggest public transport operators SMRT Corporation and SBS Transit, as well as several Light Rail Transit (LRT) lines also operated by both companies. In addition, local specialised light rail lines are in operation in places such as the Singapore Changi Airport, Sentosa, or within the grounds of the Jurong BirdPark. The sole railway line providing direct international connections is operated by Keretapi Tanah Melayu, with services commencing from the Tanjong Pagar Railway Station in southern Singapore. The present single track line is 38.6 km long, with a gauge of 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+3?8 in) (metre gauge), and proceeds north through Bukit Timah, before crossing the 1.2 km causeway to Johor Bahru on the Malay Peninsula, where it then runs along the peninsula's west coast through Kuala Lumpur and onwards to Thailand and beyond.
