We have wonderful trains but the Butterworth train station is frankly a freaking nightmare, which is why I do everything to avoid it. Hot, stuffy, badly designed etc. fortunately they are planning upgrades. I pray the person designing it won't be the same doofus who designed Penang Sentral because that's another nightmare and half.
