Business Class Train from Penang to Kuala Lumpur

We ride a business class train from Penang to Kuala Lumpur, upgrading comfort as we wrap Southeast Asia and begin the journey home.

Our family’s about to find out what it’s like to take a 4-hour business class train from Penang, Malaysia to the nation’s capital and largest city, Kuala Lumpur. We arrived here by train a few days ago, but that was a shorter trip, from Ipoh, on a simpler rail, in coach seating. So we’re hoping to experience a bit more luxury as we wrap up our latest trip around Southeast Asia and start a 5-flight journey home to Denver to celebrate Halloween. Let’s get to it.
