KL MRT, LRT & Monorail: Complete Line Guide (2026)

Getting around · updated 2026-08-23

The Klang Valley rail network can be confusing on the first ride: eight lines, three different technologies, and interchange stations whose names don't always match. This is the map in words.

Most lines run roughly 6:00–23:30; exact next departures for any station are in the live tracker.

Hours drift with timetable updates and holidays — check any station's next departures in the live tracker rather than trusting a printed time.

Interchanges worth knowing

Which technology am I riding?

It matters less than it sounds, but: MRT trains are the newest and longest; LRT is driverless on the Kelana Jaya line; the Monorail is the short two-car line threading through Bukit Bintang. All use the same Touch 'n Go / tokens / MyRapid cards.

Planning a trip across lines

Type your origin and destination into the journey planner and it will chain rail lines and feeder buses with transfer walking times — or browse each line's stations on the all-routes list.
