If you have the Amtrak App on your mobile device, you can check if the train is on time or delayed. It may or may not notify you of any delays longer than several minutes. You can easily purchase train tickets via App & use the App to have your ticket scanned. On a side note: Yes, you can still get paper tickets printed out, inside the station. There's someone behind the counter that can assist you with tickets. Or you can use the kiosk. Amtrak is a great alternative especially nowadays with gas prices. Had a few trips back & forth to Santa Barbara which was nice. Don't forget to grab a treat or a drink at Dolce Vita which is located inside the station.

Love not having to worry about traffic. Stress free. The WiFi isn't great though , that was a bummer. They sell food and booze on board. You are not allowed to bring your own liquor, you will be kicked off the train. They said that multiple times. Next summer , I'll get the multi ride package as I find myself in SB a lot in the summer. It's a nice little change of scenery. I always ride during the day and have felt safe. Unsure how it is at night but this area can be rough. Staff is nice and trains are pretty clean. Plus , we have a great coffee spot at this Amtrak .. Dolce Vita. A must !!!!

Pershing Square Station is a multi-access metro station in the heart of Downtown LA…read more You can access both the Red (B) Line and Purple (D) Line below ground as well as the Silver (J) Line above ground. It runs under Hill Street between 4th and 5th, with one main entrance/exit hub on 5th & Hill Street directly across from Pershing Square and two entrance/exit points on 4th & Hill Street parallel from each other. One on the same side as Angel's Flight and the other on the same side as Grand Central Market. Like any metro station you can find kiosk or purchasing, reloading or checking the balance of physical tap cards needed to ride metro below. You can find elevator access both at 5th as well as on the northwest side of 4th (same side as Angel's Flight). Trains run through here between 4am to 1am weekly, which if you're planning for a later night until close at your local watering hole, lounge, bar, speakeasy or nightclub ride share, a sober friend or the city metro busses are likely to be your chariot. They have been making some improvements and there are motions to extend things back to 2:30/3 am as they were prior to 2020. P.S. Station is one I know well from DTLA Proud and Summer Concerts at Pershing Square to adventures to the Last Book Store, meals at Beelman's, round treats at Donut Friend, concerts at The Regent plus trips to their Love Song Bar and also Prufrock Pizzeria for their adobe fries! Still typically busy during the day and on weekends with frequent service in the morning, afternoon and early evening with less frequency by 8 to 9pm. There isn't any direct metro parking for those riding from Pershing Square, but the Pershing Square Garage is 24 hours with a $9 flat rate + $20 max limit, overnight pricing. Other garages and lots in the area, but not all are late night or 24/7. They're doing their best to keep this station clean and safer, but that also means when need to do are part to when riding green/going metro :)

This station has three levels: Street level, Second level for ticket purchase, and Third level for the trains. There's escalators and stairs here, and an operating elevator. Daytime hours there's a small pack of people waiting for trains, probably more on the weekends. It does have that urban feel if you happen to be here on off-peak hours. Didn't see any ambassadors at this station. Just stay mindful as you're still in the downtown area. To/from Union Station from here is about a 10 minute train ride.

Closest Los Angeles Metro Station to the Walt Disney Concert Hall, the Grand Av Arts/Bunker Hill…read moreMetro Station is an underground stop for both the A (Blue Line going North-South) and E (Gold Line going East-West) Lines. It opened in June 2023, one of 3 brand new underground DTLA stations servicing the newly reconfigured A and E lines. It is pretty far underground, so the working elevators were useful. Normally we pass right by it, since it's just a stop on our way to Little Tokyo, Chinatown, or Pasadena. But this time, we needed to go to Sunday mass at the Cathedral so got off here. Since you would head NE, taking the exit to go over the pedestrian bridge would save one having to wait for a stoplight.

This station is currently the Starting/Finishing point for Line D in Beverly Hills; better known as…read morethe Purple Line. Metro is currently under construction expanding this Line going West to Westwood. The station was spotless as there were crews cleaning the station and the train I took before departure. Metro has made a big effort in keeping their busses, trains, and stations clean and safe. I took the subway to Union Station in Downtown LA to connect with Amtrak. Every station was clean with plenty of security. There were Ambassadors, Metro Security; that looked like real cops, and then LAPD officers. Any personnel that I approach with a question was very kind and helpful. I kid you not! I was very impressed. This trip was on a Sunday early evening and the train was on time and ran efficiently. Once I arrived at Union Station it was very busy. Again, the station was very clean with plenty of cleaners and security. It truly was a great experience, and I hope Metro continues this level of service indefinitely. Best way to attract more/new riders.

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.

A goes from campus all the way past the row and drops off/picks up on the popular streets where students live so this is great if you don't want to walk all the way home lol. A is more of an outside loop while B goes inside more, but you can find a live map here that tells you where the stops are and where the tram is at the moment: http://www.usctrams.com/map So legit!

This volume is frequently annoying (local neighborhood lines, HSC, Union Station) but can even be to the point of eardrum pain for passengers on the Marina Del Rey shuttle (2010). Management acknowledged the problem but implied the problem was unsolvable. 3) Unskilled drivers accelerate fast enough to knock over students not yet to their seats, run red lights, actually close doors ONTO entering passengers, and management was hiring some extremely rude and uncouth people to drive 2007-2009. Drivers do seem to have improved in 2010/11 - though I use the service less regularly and could be mistaken. All events were not just repeatedly but consistently experienced in the year listed.

It was a Tuesday evening around 8p and the station was not too busy. The subway was on time and ran efficiently. At this station is Museum Row, (several great museums within walking distance) and close to the Grove and the Original Farmers Market. This area of LA/Beverly Hills is very vibrant with many restaurants, bars, hotels, and shopping within a short distance. Metro Los Angeles has done a great job of making their busses, trains, and stations clean and safe. I hope this continues indefinitely as this will attract more and new riders. I was very pleased.
