We should have ETS until Singapore since KTM last station is there

ETS would end at JB Sentral where RTS is nearby. KTM woodland is not connected to any MRT. But it should be continued to serve other needs cos RTS can only serve 10k/hour.

with the KTM poor track records, are they reliable ?

Compared i drive myself from KV to Ipoh hometown. I rather ETS train anytime if i go back hometown alone.

Travel time cut short from average 3 hours to 2 hours. Just that its a bit expensive. 1 person round trip already almost rm100.

A bit cheaper than travel by car using highway toll and fuel. But if travel with family of 3. More expensive than driving edi.

I can relax, go toilet anytime i want. Chilled on the alleyway between coach when i feel im sitting too long.

Hmm maybe just the seat feel a bit small and underpadded. Will brush aside the side passenger. Or maybe im getting fat. Coz last time just 60kg. Nowadays 67-68kg.

Pricing really boleh tahan for KL-Kluang, for total travel time that's roughly the same

One day how many trains back and forth?

Now ktard can take ETS to Singapore to work, and come back and stay in KL at night. Spend 3 hours sleeping on the train each trip, that is already 6 hours sleep. Enough rest. tongue.gif

The KTM kommuter is not realiable because they sacrifice its reliability so that other train routes are more reliable. ranting.gif

KTM no longer has any station in Singapore since Najib PM time, no? Now the last stop is at JB center, integrated with immigration. And then there is an hourly train going to Singapore immigration located at Woodland. Outside the Singapore immigration there is a bus stop with lots of buses which can fetch you to various MRT stations in Singapore, all accepting Malaysia credit cards for fare payment.

I always pity the Klang and Shah Alam people because they had to rely on KTM Komuter for so many years just to get into KL for work. Now at least got LRT 3 soon, their suffering would at least be reduced significantly.

That sg immi train station (at woodlands) will soon be demolished once the Shutter Tebrau ceased operation after RTS in operation.

That will be an improvement since RTS is more frequent.

If 1 person travel worth it
More than 1 , a car is much practical and cheaper
