Senja Kediri train service launched on 5 December 2009 to serve the Kediri–Pasar Senen return route via Semarang, using business class train sets. On 23 December 2009, service was extended to Tulungagung, then extended again to Malang on 1 July 2011—then a trial run since 27 June 2011.
Along with a new train travel chart on 1 March 2012, Senja Kediri became Senja Singosari.
This train experienced a downgrade on 21 September 2012, becoming "Majapahit" with economy plus class service with 80 seats per train.
Beginning on 25 March 2024, the Majapahit train used a 2024 stainless steel type economy train manufactured by PT INKA, consisting of one baggage car, eight economy cars, one dining car, and one power car.
