Covina & Baldwin Park
In this update, I have two stations in Eastern Los Angles county, that have seen ridership decreases since the Gold Line opened Phase 2A of the Foothill Extension about 3.5 miles north of these stations. Both of these stops have paid parking that costs more than parking at the much more frequent Gold Line stops, […]

Claremont & Montclair
These two stations are the closest to each other on the San Bernardino Line (outside of the new extension to Downtown San Bernardino), and both are to become parallel to light rail, if funding can be identified by 2021. Other than that, the two stations couldn’t be more different, one is the largest Park & […]

Cal State L.A. and El Monte
As I continue working through my archive to finally bring the San Bernardino Line online, on this the 43rd day of home on COVID-19 lockdown, I was super happy to realize what a great evening photo set with excellent light I got on a January evening when I briefly passed through Los Angeles back in […]

The Pomona Stations

Today both are served by Metrolink, on two different lines. From 1971 until 1994 both were served by Amtrak, the Santa Fe station by the Southwest […]

The San Bernardino Depot
It’s time for a major station in California that I never quite wrote a page for, a depot that was the largest east of the Mississippi when it opened. Since I last visited back in 2013, the station has also had it’s platform structure completely changed for a short extension to the Downtown station, so […]
In our current COVID-19 world, I find myself working from home. The past two weeks have been extremely busy helping to manage bus service cuts due to driver shortages. It’s made me realize just how important public transit is, as an essential public service. Now is not the time though that I will be taking […]
With the new Disneyland Flex Pass, Louise and I are currently Disneyland annual pass-holders and have been heading out to Orange County every chance we get (this has been our 3rd trip since August). Ideally we would fly into the John Wayne Airport every time, but flights there are generally much more expensive. This trip […]
I’ve been working on a variety of website projects over the past few months, none of which have ended in an update. Now I have a small LA Metro Green Line transit update from a trip we took to Disneyland in late August. On our way to Disneyland we were scheduled to fly South Bend […]
This past April Louise and I had already paid for days at Dinseyland and again headed off to Anaheim for a quick weekend at Louise’s Happiest Place on Earth. Unlike last year when the trip ended with us getting home at 4:00am Monday morning we planned this trip with the goal of “staying on Eastern […]
