Against popular advice and Los Angeles norms, we used public transit (Metrolink regional trains and LA Metro subway) to get from Disneyland to Univeral Studios Hollywood.

8/10. Would do it again.

The LA public transit system still needs improvements (like higher frequency), but it was way better than I expected.

Constantly irritated at how (LA area commuter rail) is treated as something that no one actually relies on. So many times service gets canceled and "no alternative will be provided." Also they've been doing work around my closest stop for over a year and keep switching around the access points (bc of course the station is tucked away on a tiny back street) with no warning. 😡

The U.S. is having a rail travel renaissance, but you probably didn’t notice.

"High-speed rail is still a long way off, but vastly improved conventional rail is right around the corner."

People are waiting two hours to get into Union Station’s tour of Railroad cars and Equipment at the Train Festival.

Contrary to what the auto and oil lobby tells you, people love trains.

extending service to Ventura County (apparently due to the X Games happening at the Fairgrounds here). https://ktla.com/news/local-news/metrolink-to-extend-ventura-county-services-for-2023-x-games/
