    The breda p2550 still has the spirt of the goldline. The announcements still says this is instead of now arriving like all p3010s.

    That's the most practical model of subway train that is also a tram. Although big car subway trains look beautiful, but those trams consisting a four-pair car train each can run over streets and negotiate tight curves underground.

    • @theghostofmrcow1985
      @theghostofmrcow1985 Před 11 měsíci +1

      I also saw a p3010 number 1203 in the A line. I still wondering what on earth a k line p3010 number 1203 doing in the A line. Their where around when the goldline was alive weeks ago. Is a hint that a breda p2550 are secretly being tested or stored somewhere in division 16 and division 22. Trust me bro,my intuition is telling me,we are going to see a breda p2550 real soon in the green line and k line/Crenshaw line. What would your reaction be If you start seeing a breda p2550 in the Crenshaw line or green line?

    • @PixelPlayzYT365

      @PixelPlayzYT365 bro those p3010 number 1200s keep popping up lately on the A line blue. I saw a few of them yesterday. 1202 1203 1200 and etc. I am telling you, those p3010s number 1200s are speaking to us and my intuition is telling me those breda p2550 are secretly being tested in the green line and k line without our knowledge. I am sure they are hiding a few bredas p2550 in division 16 and division 22.

    • @mrxman581
      @mrxman581 Před měsícem

      All the LA Metro light rail lines are at least partially grade separated. Some of them significantly so, and one of them is completely grade separated. That would be the C line. However, they all run on dedicated ROWs. They don't share the street lane like a streetcar, and the top speed is 55 mph. Average speed is about 25 mph.
      Signal prioritization is tricky because LA Metro has no say over traffic lights. That's the purview of LADOT. LADOT is responsible for dealing with traffic issues so it's a push and pull between LADOT's mandate to have traffic moving efficiently and LA Metro's mandate to make the trains run as efficiently as possible, too.
      However, from what I understand, the E line does have signal prioritization on the Westside in Santa Monica and Culver City. If they could at least have signal prioritization in East LA, that would help. I don't know if LADOT is also responsible for the unincorporated areas of LA County like East LA though.

      The P2550s are rather fat, that's why Metro didn't purchase more of them. I assume an overweight train isn't good for the structural integrity of the 105.

      LA Metro has improved noticeably. They've had ridership increases for the last 16 months as of April 2024. Ridership went up 11% in 2023 compared to 2022. That's encouraging.
      I and many other Angelenos stopped riding the LA Metro for 3 years until 2023. I started riding it again ever since the Regional Connector opened in June 2023. It's been steadily improving.
