I can only guess that the reason the old train station was built was so that trains could stop there, just like any other train station in the world.
Apparently the new train station is one part of Malaysia's 'mega projects'

during that time is the need to transport tin and rubber which is the main industry at that time. as kuala lumpur grow into city it is also the need for transportation for people to travel. car and buses it not popular for long distance travel during that time.

back in the olden era, train was considered the fastest form of transportation. it provides good material and human logistics. thats why a train station was built.
