I actually used to live in L.A., but it was over 10 years ago. They didn’t even have a train to the beach at the time because the people in Beverly Hills and Brentwood didn’t want the filthy poors going under their fair cities and were blocking it. I hear it’s much better now.
We lived in North Hollywood and used to take the train downtown and to Long Beach all the time. They also built the Orange Line in the Valley while I lived there and I thought and still think a very long dedicated bus road instead of a train is silly. Anyway. I’m glad they’re improving things.
I wouldn’t say it’s MUCH better than 10 years ago, but they’re definitely making an effort to expand the train system. Blue Line goes all the way to Union Station now instead of just 7th & Metro. Purple line is in development to go to at least UCLA. Expo line, not sure if that was completed before you left, but connects from Santa Monica to Union Station now.
