The KTM Class 19 are a class of 10 Bo'Bo' shunting locomotives built by Hitachi in 1983 for Keretapi Tanah Melayu (Malayan Railway). The locomotives are based in major train stations as station pilots.^{[citation needed]} As they are classed as shunters, they are limited to major train stations only and do not operate on the mainline.^{[citation needed]}

History

10 locomotives were acquired in 1983 and were assigned shunting duties around Malaysia. As of July 2025 all are in active service.^{[citation needed]}
