Los Angeles Metro Regional Connector Cab View From Union Station & Pico/Aliso-7th St/Metro Center
After nearly a decade of constructing a 1.9-mile subway extension with many twists and turns, the Regional Connector project is done and now fully operational. Los Angeles's second underground subway opened for the first time since the opening of phase one of the Metro Red Line back in 1993. I became the first railfanner to film and record a cab view from Union Station and Pico/Aliso to 7th St/Metro Center from a Blue Line inaugural train (P3010 1153), then later filmed the east side tunnel from an Expo Line train (P3010 1060). With the new connector connecting the Blue, Expo, and Gold Lines, it'll now be split into two lines, Blue Line now goes from Azusa to Long Beach, and the Expo Line from East LA to Santa Monica. The Gold Line naming has officially retired, and while it may be hard to say a color or letter line from an unusual location, you'll get used to it within time, or if you're like me, continue being old school and still call it whatever you want even when the Gold Line has been left in the past. Hope everyone enjoys this historic moment as it will be the new norm for all Angelinos living along those light rail lines. Also, apologies for my voice being exposed in this video, these people had to distract me while filming. Enjoy!

zhlédnutí 7KPřed rokem
A tribute to the Nippon Sharyo P2020, which is sadly no longer in Metro's rail fleet due to problems with space after the last batch of P3010s arrived, and the agency’s use of politics against it. As the days for these beautiful trains have declined over time, I had many chances to catch them before they were decommissioned and transferred to the Green Line. There will be P865 100 with its 1989...

Metro Blue Line Cab View (w. P2020 158) from Long Beach to Los Angeles - Ride the Last of the P2020s

Throwing back in time to the declining days of the P2020s, the retirement process would begin the day after filming this cab view from Long Beach to Los Angeles as cars #166 and #167 would be the first set to be decommissioned. The video is inspired by the Interurban Film's video of the final cab view/ride of the Pacific Electric Railway from Los Angeles to Long Beach in late March 1961. While ...
(Rare) Metro Rail #211 going via NRC track to the Green Line
zhlédnutí 5KPřed rokem
Taken: February 8th, 2021 While I was railfanning during the declining days of the P2020s, I heard that a Siemens P2000 restored unit #211 was on its way to the Metro Green Line by track switching via the NRC. Nobody recorded the NRC move before the P2020 retirement, the NRC track is rarely used only to transfer trains from the Blue Line to Green. The P2000s that run on the Green one are curren...

As you all heard. The Nippon Sharyo P2020s have been retired infamously due to storage and political reasons earlier this year. As we near the end of 2021, let’s look back and see them once again on the big screen to relive the memories of their final weeks of their journey before their tragic end. There’s been some controversy behind this retirement as Metro faced a lot of mechanical issues on...

The day marks 30 years since the Blue Line first opened to the public and served the areas of Los Angeles, South Central, Vernon, Florence-Firestone, Watts, Compton, Carson, and Long Beach. Now after 29 years it's been infamously renovated with still maintenance days almost common, we still fairly agree this's the line that began service from north to south.

    I at least appreciate Metro for retaining three of these vehicles for preservation (including Car 100), and acknowledging their impact upon the revival of rail transit within LA. The rumours were proven true. Car 164 is at the Western Railway Museum, Car 100 is set to be on display at Downtown Long Beach, and Car 144 is at the Southern California Railway Museum. Cars 164 and 144 are still operational, so we can still see it run and hear its electric buzz of its engines. If this was Hong Kong (where I'm from), all of those trains would have been scrapped, and they would have moved right on to the future, ignoring their past. But surely, it's quite sad to see Car 100, the first car to enter operation within the network, being the chosen car that's doing the towing operation. While Car 100 is still around, the car behind it would be gone within a few months.

    Metro wasted money on adding vinyl seats to the P2020s and building more P3010s. The P2020s should not have been retired this early, they were perfectly healthy. When I was a child, I rode the Blue Line to Long Beach on a P2020 and I deeply regret not taking photos of it or filming it.

      You mean R.I.P. the L Line (Gold). The Gold Line itself technically still exists, as the L Line's gold color is now inherited to the E Line (Expo). Also R.I.P. the original aqua blue colored E/Expo Line (2012-2023).
