I have since retired and now use the train occasionally. I used to buy a monthly pass (discount for frequent users). Also available are daily, student/senior discounts, and special weekend prices too. Plan your trip by checking their website for arrival and departure times. The passes are not sold on the train, you must pre-purchase at the convenient kiosk. The Covina Station has permit parking, which must be purchased through the City of Covina. Across the street is a parking structure, daily passes can be bought at the machine located by the entrance. The train cars have an upper and lower seating sections, some areas have a table that seats four people. Food or drinks are permitted, but not sold on the train. They also have clean bathrooms, which is a plus when traveling with a family or distance more than an hour in duration. Enjoy the ride and don't forget to tell em that Rosemary sent ya!!

I take the train Monday through Friday from APU/Citrus College to Memorial Park at 6:30 AM and back…read moreat 3:30 PM. Since the Pomona stations opened, parking at APU has gotten much better. I usually find plenty of spaces in the mornings, and I've never had any issues with my car, even though there are quite a few homeless people around the area. I use the LA Metro app to pay for my parking fare, which is super convenient because I can just pay as I'm walking to the platform and don't have to stop at a machine. Around the time I ride, the trains aren't very crowded, which makes the commute easy and predictable. Plus, I save around 30-45 minutes compared to driving home during rush hour, which is a huge win for me. There are, however, several homeless individuals who sleep on the train. Most have been harmless, but occasionally the smell has been bad enough that I've had to get off and wait for the next one. One time I was rushing to catch the train and an ambassador told me to just hop on without tapping and of course that ended up being the day fare inspectors were checking. Thankfully, I showed that my TAP card was fully loaded, and the officer was understanding. Still, I wish fare enforcement was applied more consistently, because it doesn't feel fair when regular riders get checked while the homeless are overlooked and not asked to show theirs. Aside from that, most Metro staff and ambassadors I've met have been kind, professional, and quick to respond when issues come up. The trains themselves can get pretty dirty, though I really wish all stations had the automatic doors like the ones at Lake Station to help keep things cleaner and reduce people bringing large smell carts onto the trains. Overall, it's a reliable and affordable commute option with friendly staff, and it saves me a lot of time compared to driving. The system could use some improvements, but for convenience and time savings, it's been worth it.

Reading a couple other reviews, this station seemed clean and had no transient issues when my…read morefriend and I came through here before taking the train over to the Pico Station by Staples Center (Crypto). They do have two security guards on the train platform for passenger safety here at this station during the day. It's an easy in, easy out parking structure. We didn't have any hassles on the way back when it was 9:30 pmish. As of now, this train stop is the end of the line. It's nice that I live in the Inland Empire, that we can drive here, leave the car, and take the train to LA without worry. It's nice to not have to drive all the way into downtown LA and that this train runs super late and early mornings from this Azusa stop. Perhaps they have improved this station? The inside of the train yes, a different story. Don't they check the train cars when stopping? The first train car we got into we quickly exited as someone puked on it. You would think trains are there long enough to be checked and even cleaned. If not, they should be. Also, does anyone check train tickets? A couple people on here sleeping that appear to just ride around and get off the train whenever they wake up or feel like it. No safety on the train when crazy people are on it. I Rate the train parking structure stop a 5. Security on platform a 5. Posted Cleaning crew 1. Inside train safety and cleanliness 1. So this is a generous even 3 stars. Much improvement needed. You get what you pay for to keep a good ride $1.75 each way.

Excellent service! Following some shenanigans with a…read moredifferent shuttle service, I reached out to Xpress Shuttles and spoke with Jackson, about my need for a next day shuttle for 5 people and ALOT of luggage. While Jackson did not have availability for the next day, he found a different company to handle our shuttle needs. I was contacted an hour later by the driver to confirm our reservation, and provided a contact number for any customer service needs. The driver arrived 10 minutes early the next day (with free bottled water) and delivered us to LAX promptly. Would highly recommend this company to others and will use in the future.

I definitely recommend Xpress and will use them again when flying into the LA/OC area.

Scored tickets for Oasis last minute on a Sunday and for some reason my friend suggested we take…read morethe Gold Line to get to the Rose Bowl instead of driving there because it was already a risk that we would miss their set. We parked at the Azusa downtown station and I had to buy a tap card (I have one already but haven't used it in years) at the station. There's also a TAP app but I didn't want to risk my phone dying and then I couldn't turn it on to use the app to get on the train. Good thing I got the card because my phone did die and I didn't bring a battery pack with me because the Rose Bowl had strict rules on the size of the bag you could bring in. Once we exited at the right station, we passed two lights and were able to easily catch the shuttle to the Rose Bowl for the concert. I've been to the Rose Bowl numerous times and I'm never parking there, I'd rather take the Gold Line to save on the stress and hassle. Only downside is you may have to leave your event a little early to beat the crowd out but it's worth it.

This review covers both Azuza stops on the 'new' Blue line that starts/ends in Long Beach/Azuza…read more They are about a mile apart with one getting off on the 2nd to last stop to see downtown Azuza, and the last stop to go to Azuza Pacific University. There is a dedicated parking ramp at the last stop for commuters, with a $3.00 daily all day rate. There looks to be a planned shopping center connected to the rail station (with an outdoor courtyard), but no tenants were occupying it. It was pretty deserted. The downtown Azuza stop has more action, with businesses surrounding it. There were some recommended restaurants in the area that we would go to, if we are in the area again. As mentioned, this is now part of the new Blue A line. We took the train end to end, and it's a long 1;45 minute ride. It was a really hot day, but the train cars that were in, had strong working A/C. And we got the opportunity to pass by the 3 new underground stations in downtown LA that now connects the old Blue line (that terminated at 7th St station) to the old Gold line, connecting at Union Station.

The speakers worked great, they had Bluetooth and there were no issues with that. The driver also dropped us off to go to the restroom and then we had another stop to make, so he was very accommodating and patient with us.
