I decided to write this quick guide after looking at a map of the Kuala Lumpur rail system and Google maps while trying to figure out how to get to the world famous Batu Caves, among other places.  Most searches online seemed to end with the solution of taking a cab or tour package. If you know me, you'll remember how much I try to stay away from the tour bus/companies/large groups of tourists and prefer to find my own way. Doing so usually ends with a better story and more time exploring, and of course better photos.  So, we decided to make our own way and it worked quite well.
