KTM Komuter Map

When people is doing something productive with their time, I'm working on this thingy that caught my interest few months ago. I am amazed at how cities like London, Tokyo, New York, etc managed to get together a nice looking rail transit map that actually looks decent.

Today, I use my beginner PhotoShop skill, and created this KTM Komuter map. All slanting station names are made horizontal. I get the inspiration mainly from London Underground map, and some other major train systems map, and of course the original KTM Komuter map.

I have to say I miss KTM Komuter, although I travel on MRT almost everyday nowadays. I still can't bear the train stopping every couple minutes. And it takes 14 stops to reach Raffles Place from Pioneer, 14 less-than-two-minutes-apart stops! ARGH!!!

Feel free to comment. I'm thinking to do up a KL rail transit map next, but it's going to take some time. Hehe..

There's actually a formatting error. I didn't correct it because it would affect everything else that I have already put in place at that point of time when I discover the error. Haha..

Not sure if u have travelled on the LRT in KL b4, the stations are.. well.. some of them are actually within walking distance. At least I think so.

Anyway, nice job on the map! Trying to figure out the formatting error..
