The Kelana Jaya Line is a rapid transit system, which is one of the three rail transit lines in the Kuala Lumpur Rail Transit System operated by RapidKL Rail network. The other rail transit is the Ampang Line & Monorail Line.
The Kelana Jaya Line was formerly known as PUTRA LRT ("PUTRA" stands for Projek Usahasama Transit Ringan Automatik Sdn Bhd, the company which developed and operated it). Following a restructuring of ownership and management, the line is currently owned by Syarikat Prasarana Negara Berhad (SPNB is used by Syarikat Perumahan Negara Berhad) and operated by Rapid KL.
On 28 November 2011, the Kelana Jaya Line and the Ampang Line were integrated with a single ticketing system, allowing commuters to transfer from one line to another at Masjid Jamek station without the need to buy a new ticket for the first time since the line became fully operational in 1999.

Famous quotes containing the word line:
“Our job is now clear. All Americans must be prepared to make, on a 24 hour schedule, every war weapon possible and the war factory line will use men and materials which will bring, the war effort to every man, woman, and child in America. All one hundred thirty million of us will be needed to answer the sunrise stealth of the Sabbath Day Assassins.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
