It is now much easier and cheaper to take one of the regular KTM Komuter Trains that leave from Padang Besar to Butterworth every one or two hours (all stopping at Sungai Petani along the route).
The main difference with these trains compared to the ETS services is that you are not guaranteed a seat on the commuter services.
Passengers on ETS services are allocated a seat.
Komuter services are like tube / subway trains with seats down the sides and seats are not allocated. So on a really busy day, you may have to stand.
