KUALA LUMPUR RAIL MAP : Free Stuff

Fed up with the half-baked maps provided by the various public transport rail operators, I embarked to do my own integrated map. Note that the map is integrated but the railway transit system isn't really. In doing the map, I figured out a few things :

1. There really should be 2 maps: One for central KL and one for the greater Klang valley.
2. Also the maps should show the area and not the system (just because a rail system goes from KL to Seremban doesn't mean I have to show Seremban as part of KL).
3. The maps need not be to scale but should have a semblance of distance (or perceived distance, perhaps by travel time).
4. Maps should be representative of spatial directions; so North should be north-ish (ie north shouldn't be shown at west... etc).

• Greater Kuala Lumpur Area - Rail Map = _EPS_195KB / _WMF_395KB

---

• Central Kuala Lumpur Area - Rail Map = _EPS_172KB / _WMF_354KB

I've had numerous requests to do a bus map. I'm sorry but that'll be really difficult as I'll need to make the KL road map first (which I don't think I have time to do).

Just for info, I created the colour-table first (using quarter values) and then selected the actual colours :

-R- / -G- / -B-	[ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ]
191 / _63 / _63	• BF3F3F	Putra LRT
191 / 191 / __0	• BFBF00	Monorail
_63 / 191 / _63	• 3FBF3F	Ampang LRT
__0 / 191 / 191	• 00BFBF	Seremban KTM
_63 / _63 / 191	• 3F3FBF	Sri Petaling KTM
191 / __0 / 191	• BF00BF	Airport Line
191 / 127 / __0	• BF7F00	Port Klang LRT
191 / __0 / 127	• BF007F	not used
127 / 191 / __0	• 7FBF00	not used
__0 / 191 / 127	• 00BF7F	not used
127 / __0 / 191	• 7F00BF	not used
__0 / 127 / 191	• 007FBF	not used

KTM = Keretapi Tanah Melayu : Malayan Railways
LRT = Light Rail Transit
