I took the Orange Lone for a job interview this afternoon. Let's just say I enjoyed this view. I…read morecame from the downtown area and ventured to beautiful place. I really love the Winnetka and Canoga Park area. It is a really beautiful part of our city. All stops also have benches were you can sit while you are waiting for the bus. Entering the bus is mostly empty and you can find a seat for the most part. The Orange Line is also well maintained and very clean. It passes often well at least when I needed it and it keeps true to the schedule with no delays. When you step into the bus and on the road you will mostly see beautiful suburban homes and a lot of empty fields. Coming from the big packed part of the city, I really enjoyed the view of the empty fields and mountain areas. The bus driver and passengers were overwhelmingly nice for helping me with directions. An area filled with nice people and bus staff.

However, from what I hear the metro bus is always on time. It's very useful if you don't drive or need to get to the North Hollywood station. Be prepare to buy you ticket in advance to get on the bus, or you will get a ticket. There is always undercover cops on the bus giving out tickets. I see it all the time, when I'm running. Cons: When running you might get a lot of reds lights that can take up to 3-4 minutes. From Winnetka to Balboa on topham there is probably 7 lights.

The new $349 million dollar busway that links Woodland Hills with the North Hollywood Metro Rail…read morestation needs work. Sure, this weekend was the first public running of the "superliner" buses and it was a free ride weekend. The crowds turned out to give the "bus that rides like a train" a spin. After several weeks of dry runs you would expect fewer kinks. We boarded the 60 foot long bus at the Warner Center Transit Depot and then waited for 10 minutes for the tech crew to figure out why the doors would not close. After we got underway I set my timer. The political propaganda promised tax payers a 14 mile trans-Valley trip of less than 30 min. The Metro guides say 42 min. The actual time 68 min. (less a 5 min wrangling when a wheelchair got tied up in the safety belt system) the return trip took 58 min. The majority of the trip is on a "bus only" roadway free of car traffic. The Metroliner does have to stop at several of the 36 signal controlled intersections and the wait seems longer than normal. Considering this is an all new road surface, the ride was awfully choppy. From the center flex point of the bus there is no view of outside and apparently the air-conditioning doesn't work either. Many people were complaining of the warmth inside. I moved closer to the front and felt a nice cold blast of air. The sideways seats SUCK! You sit above the wheels and have a limited view of where you are going or the multi million dollar landscaping installed along the busway. On top of that you have to step up and let your feet dangle over the edge. It is a chore trying not to kick people standing in the isles. There is no announcement of stops like on SF Muni system. So if you are the unfortunate passenger that has no outward view there is a chance you won't see your stop. On a good note, lots of people turned out to ride today. Maybe some will become regular riders and hopefully we will indeed see some traffic relief on US 101 because of this new route. I just wish LA leaders would look at SF and try a little harder to find a better mass transit solution than buses that act like....well buses.

The Orange Line is one the Valley's best way to cut across the valley. Ever since its opening in…read more2005, it has saved a lot of time and stress. The Orange Line would connect the West Valley to all of Los Angeles County. Orange Line's First and Last Stop is Warner Center Transit Center in Woodland Hills. Warner Center Transit Center/Hub is located on Owensmouth and just near the Westfield Promenade. Orange Line times will vary on the day/time There is only one Ticket Vending Machine. I thought there was two before, but they have removed it or I am just imagining it. Warner Center is a hub for all other Metro Lines to meet in Woodland Hills. There will be an expansion to the Orange Line coming very soon. I am not sure if Warner Center is still the last stop since the Orange Line Extension will move north. Once a while, I get on the Orange Line to grab a movie at AMC Promenade 16. Just let someone else handle the driving and stress. For $1.50 one way or $5 Day Pass, its still much cheaper to get anywhere in Los Angeles than buying $4 per gallon gas. Yelp is My Review, My Story, and My Life. Its time to share it.

Saw there was a LADOT DASH bus waiting at the train station, which runs every 15 minutes around Reseda. No WiFi access is available on any Metrolink trains while the Amtrak has it for Business Class seats. Beginning July 1, 2025, you can buy a day pass ticket for unlimited travel across all Metrolink lines at $15 weekdays, $10 weekends! Note: Be careful, please check the Metrolink schedule to see whether the trip is worth your time for waiting at the Union Station for nearly two hours on the way back to the Northridge Station. For example , when I arrived at the Union Station at 2:45 PM, I found the next available train to the Northridge is at 4:30 PM. That's a challenge from LA Metro and Metrolink to attract more riders to take a public transit, instead of driving.

If you've ever been to other train stations you'll be properly confused here because there's only…read moreONE track! I genuinely had no idea I was in the right spot even though they had a sign up that indicated train arrivals/departures. There seems to be ample parking in the area and you can either book your ticket via the Metrolink app or on the self serve kiosk at the station. I believe there are shuttles that take you to/from this station as well since I noticed a ton of students and presumably faculty getting off the shuttle. The train itself is pleasantly clean and air conditioned, which was a nice change from the weather outside. The bathrooms were also very spacious and clean. I was on a double decker plane so I naturally gravitated to the second level. It was pretty empty despite it being a weekday afternoon around 4-5 pm and it was quiet and peaceful. I was able to get from Northridge to Union Station in considerably less time than if I drove there. Overall, please take public transit whenever possible! This even takes you to Burbank airport! It's a fun and quick ride and so much better than sitting in traffic. (35/100--2024)

The path is really nice and starts along the bus line behind the Bed Bath and Beyond center toward De Soto, Mason and Winnetka. The only downside is the long traffic lights which slow your pace and heart rate/breathing. I took the metro to downtown recently and it worked very well. The bus was clean and nice and got me to the NoHo subway station fairly quickly so I could take a train from there. Parking here is plentiful and what's best is there's a small sheriff's outpost trailer so they're around to keep an eye on your car. As far as bus stops go, Canoga Park is pretty nice with a lot of places to sit and it's really modern and clean. Just be very, very careful obeying traffic lights and crossing because the buses come fast.
