The Kepong Komuter station (formerly Kepong railway station) is a Malaysian commuter train station located in the northern area of Kuala Lumpur along the Rawang-Seremban Route. As there are no other train systems that operate here other than KTM Komuter, this station can be packed at certain times.In 2013 a bigger car park was built to fasilitate for the amount of vehicles used by some users of the train station, but it had certain opposition from some residents living along Jalan 32 because the greeneries had to be destroyed.The station is located along Jalan 32,Kepong Garden(Taman Kepong)
The Kepong Komuter station was built to cater increasing traffic in a suburban area with the similar name called Kepong. The Kepong Sentral Komuter station, which also serves the same locality, is located 1 km away.
