The orange, black and silver rear of a double-decker Mariyung intercity train stopped at a short concrete platform. The train's electronic destination board above its clean windshield reads "Central". This photo is taken at a low angle on the tracks, looking up at the train. The train is on the left track, while the right track and other platform is unoccupied. The platform has a small shelter, a wooden bench and a fence along a ramp. The sky is mostly clear and the background appears densly forrested.

The interior of the train. It is clean and brightly lit, with white walls and ceiling and reversible blue-patterned fabric chairs in a 3-2 configuration. The chairs have a headrest and yellow handles on aisle seats. Large clear windows line both sides, providing views of the station platform outside. The station appears empty, and natural daylight fills the carriage.
