KA Feeder Whoosh

The Feeder Whoosh is a dedicated commuter rail service operated by Kereta Api Indonesia (KAI) in West Java, Indonesia, designed to seamlessly integrate regional mobility with the Jakarta-Bandung high-speed railway network. The moniker "Feeder" derives from its core logistical function: transporting passengers between the main high-speed terminus and the historic city center. The primary corridor connects Padalarang Station directly to Bandung Station, bridging a critical geographical gap that would otherwise require navigating congested road networks.

As a catalyst for regional connectivity, the service plays a pivotal role in modernizing passenger mobility across the Bandung Metropolitan Area. By utilizing robust diesel-electric multiple units (DEMUs), the corridor ensures high reliability, punctuality, and all-weather operational consistency. This integration drastically reduces total travel times for commuters and tourists alike, fostering economic growth, boosting tourism, and establishing a cohesive multi-modal transportation ecosystem within the province.

Operating under the national rail schedule framework (Gapeka 2025), the service runs 62 scheduled daily trips across a route distance of approximately 15 kilometers. The journey integrates three scheduled stations—Padalarang, Cimahi, and Bandung—yielding an average transit time of 18 minutes per direction. The rolling stock comprises specialized Commuter KRD (Kereta Rel Diesel) equipment configured for high-density passenger flow, featuring comfortable seating and optimized boarding mechanisms to maintain rapid turnaround times at each stop.
