We took a little ride on the Metro from San Dimas to Glendora for lunch and a stroll through their…read moredowntown area. Being a weekday, there weren't a lot of other passengers either waiting at the station or riding in our car. This was our first journey on the rail A Line that now runs from Pomona to Long Beach. The Glendora station area is neat and, being only a few months old, all the ticket machines are working and in good order. I mention this as I've read reviews where other Metro riders have had issues with buying or reloading fare (TAP) cards at other stations. The passengers at this station enter and debark just south of the Glendora post office. From there, it's only a short walk east to Glendora Avenue and then north (two blocks?) to city hall and the downtown area full of shops and eating/drinking establishments. Feeling mildly apprehensive after having heard some of the horror stories about public rail systems, I'm happy to report that my wife and I rode comfortably in a clean car and were not disturbed by the few other people (three?) on the train. I've had others observe that sitting in the front car (nearest the driver) is preferable for those wishing to avoid some of the more "colorful" characters that sometimes frequent the rail systems. We took this advice as a preventative measure with positive results. We did have an exceptionally long wait for our return train with three trains pulling into Glendora heading toward Downtown L.A. by the time we boarded the next train back to San Dimas. Usually there are trains pulling into Glendora about every eight minutes or so, but there were some announcements about an elevator issue at Union Station (automated information boards were fairly accurate in keeping us updated on the delayed arrival time). Our wait was a little over 15-minutes. We enjoyed our inaugural journey and are considering other excursions to neighboring cities along the line. It's inexpensive enough to ride (regular fares $1.75 one way/seniors .75) and a great option if your destination is nearby the station and you don't mind a little additional walking.

As indicated by the name, it is 90 feet underneath the intersection of Wilshire and La Cienega Blvd (just within Beverly Hills). The famous Rodeo Drive will be accessible when the Beverly Dr station opens in 2027. There were shiny new elevators as well as escalators. Paddle gates were active. At the concourse level, both sides of the station were tiled with panels designed by the artist Mariana Castillo Deball, titled "Four Pleated Lanscapes: Fossil Ground, Woven Cienega, Medicinal Flora and Urban Desert Fauna". And yes, the plaque did misspell 'landscape'...sigh. My goal was to visit each of the three new stations on this weekday, and used Metro enough to hit the daily limit (once you are charged $5, 3 trips at $1.75 each, every subsequent ride is free for the rest of the day). I also read that Tap Plus (where one can just use your contactless credit card as your card, vs having to use your phone or physical TAP card) will be active by Spring '26, but nothing that said it is active yet. Getting that working will be big for visitors, who will just use their credit card without having to prepay for fare, and know that they are optimizing how they are not overpaying.

Forget all the stereotypes and awful things you've heard about California public transit. You hear of how little there is and how nasty they are. You hear that while people say California is a car culture state. While both those things are true the new LAX Metro Transit Center is a marvelous hub of public transportation. Built in mind to service the thousands of people who'll come in for the summer Olympics in 2028 this transport hub will remain long after the tourists leave and it'll become a central and integral part of public transport for Los Angelenos. Everything is shiny and clean. Large swathes of steel and glass give everything an open air feel. The security patrolling every 50 feet or so means the place feels secure and seen. The large shuttle docks makes for easy understanding of where the buses are going. And once the people mover or sky tram or whatever LAX will call it connects to this transit center going into LAX will become so convenient. No more fighting traffic to get in. Simply take a monorail over to each terminal. I've already used it several times to go to LAX without the sky tram and it was convenient. It'll only get better once that's implemented. Most Americans who've travelled abroad romanticize train stations and public transit, and rightfully so. When we lack something that feels so integral to public spaces it's hard not to yearn for it. But with LAX Metro Transit Center and the future lines connecting through it we can start romanizing our own lives here in California.

I'm so happy to see the San Dimas Station: Metro A Line finally operating!…read more So far it has seemed relatively clean and safe. The parking is just across the street from the station. Often there are assistants on the platform to help with questions and monitor the area. I really wish the ticket machines were more user-friendly. We used to ride the metro in LA all the time, yet I still don't find it easy or intuitive to load my card. I'll probably try using the mobile app rather than an actual card next time to see if it's any easier. The station is conveniently located in the middle of town, so you can get right off the platform, walk a few hundred feet North, and explore little downtown San Dimas. Now we just need a few more fun bars and restaurants downtown, as well as more shopping boutiques and mom 'n' pop stores. You can visit the San Dimas Historical Society or the Pacific Railroad Society Museum to get a flavor of what San Dimas was like at the turn of the century with its citrus production. Walk the neighborhoods and see the historic bungalow homes. There is even a walking tour of San Dimas where you can see the historic sites. And now if you work in Pasadena, LA, or even Long Beach, you can metro to work and never have to deal with the freeway. I just hope that they keep the train clean and safe, so that people feel good to use it to go to work, as well as for recreational adventures! See you on the metro!

I wanted to make this review in appreciation to Metro for hosting a FIFA World Cup watch party at…read morethe station. Some of my favorite memories travelling through Europe and South America during multiple World Cups is the sense of community that is created by the event. Many cities will put up large screens in parks and central plazas for their residents to watch the matches for free, local vendors capitalize on the increased traffic, and residents all join together to watch the matches regardless of their affiliation. Not only will you will see fans of both teams joining together in friendly rivalry, but fans of soccer in general wearing the jersey of their local club, or kids in their youth league jersey, or even completely unrelated teams to two playing. Yesterday's event at Little Tokyo station was no different, with many attendees wearing the Mexican El Tri and Las Aguilas, coming to support Japan due to a controversal play by Netherlands in 2014. There were fans wearing Oranje, Feyenoord Rotterdam, USMNT, LA Galaxy and LAFC jerseys, and even Dodgers and Tokyo Giants gear. I also loved the Rally Wagon providing a creative activity for kids (of all ages) to participate, and in fact made a Samurai Blue pennant for myself as well... Some notes for future activations. While providing shaded areas is important, too much makes it difficult to fully appreciate the main viewing area. I feel that the shaded pavillion could have been pushed further south without the side wings so not to obstruct the view from the beer garden, restroom, or water station. As for non-FIFA notes, this is a great station, well placed for access to Little Tokyo and always feels clean and safe. I love the plaque recognizing of the legendary Atomic Cafe that previously occupied the location as well as a brief history of the neighborhood. Bravo Metro on creating and continuing to maintain one of my favorite stations in your system.

Literally go up the escalator/stairs, through TSA, and then turn right and the terminal is literally right there. There are times where there's only 1-5 people ahead of me in line at TSA and you don't have to take your shoes off anymore, making the process so much faster and smoother. Food and shopping options are a bit limited, but it's a smaller airport so no big deal for me. Seating is usually plentiful but the tables with the power outlets go by pretty quickly. Sometimes the flight attendants have a mic so you can hear updates, but obviously sit closer to the gate out if you really want updates or to correctly know when to line up.

Almost immediately, a male employee approached my wife and told her to move the car because the vehicle in front supposedly needed room to leave. However, there was clearly plenty of space for that car to exit, and there was no turn signal or indication that it was trying to pull out. The interaction felt unnecessary and abrupt, especially given how quickly we were unloading and the light traffic at the time. Afterward, the employee stood in the roadway to block cars so I could pull out, which felt excessive and awkward. This isn't an elementary school drop‑off where traffic needs to be manually stopped, and anyone familiar with airport drop‑offs knows they can be tight and fluid. I have never experienced this kind of situation at any other airport, and certainly not under similar circumstances. The handling of this felt unreasonable and made an otherwise simple drop‑off frustrating for no clear reason.

You will notice the ceilings with the old film reels, which is pretty neat. They are not real though, just decorative art. At a recent weekday visit, this station was a little bit on the emptier side, and I didn't see any transit ambassadors or anything. But, the station has many people walking through the station in the daytime. You will be walking up or down two floors of escalators, depending on the direction you are coming from. This station is a little dim on the upper levels, but it is bright on the train level. There are no down escalators to the train level though. Only stairs. There is an elevator, though I did not take it, but did see it there. General travel during the day, this station seems fine. It's the B Line (formerly the Red Line) that runs through here.

I used it as the get-off point for an easy walk to the nearby La Verne downtown for lunch.
