Yes, I went twice biggrin.gif

There is a large academy for KTM employees.

Inside the academy, there is a library as well.

Before the opening of this academy, the library was located at KL Sentral.

If things go as planned........CSR Zhuzhou may set up train factory here.

I really love this train service. It should really be the benchmark for how our other train services operate. They depart/arrive on time, train is clean, quiet, comfy, food is good and price is reasonable.

Now i prefer to travel back to Batu Gajah using this train service than driving. I hope they will be able to maintain this performance in long term, even better if they can improve further.

Something that i wish they will be able to add soon is wifi service for the passengers.
