Trundling through the jungle

I recently spent time in Kuala Lumpur (KL) and had the opportunity to visit Singapore. All too easily we hop on to the budget airlines websites, which is exactly what I did for this trip. However, the one thing that puts me off flying in and out of KL on low cost carriers is the time, effort and the cheap, clapped out coaches to and from KL’s dedicated low-cost terminal, LCCT. I knew there was a train service from KL to Singapore – it was around long before flying of course. So I did a bit of research and found that on balance, taking into account cost, total journey time, comfort and effort, going by train appeared to be a no brainer. So decided to put it to the test and compare.
