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 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.
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.
The L Line will return with the advent of the Van Nuys Blvd light rail line in the San Fernando valley, according to a map by Metro for long range projects.
Actually I seen police at the gates to make sure everyone pays . I also was in a tap card inspection . I was filming and they stopped the train and told everyone to pull out tap cards
@@jasonleetaiwan LAX is constructing an automated people mover to service the airport terminals, and will connect to the LAX K Line station. All the guideways for the APM are up around the Airport, with some stations halfway done. It should be ready to open by 2024, possibly in the summer.
@jasonleetaiwan that what I heard the last time I took the C Line to LAX station. I was wondering what all that construction was for. @Allencartercomix
@vickiehurt2665 they still lagging it with the lax/ k line mover. The foothill extension project is already beating them. I won't be surprised the foothill extension project would be done before the k line mover.🎉
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.
They could easily transfer a breda p2550 in the non regional track at 3:19. I wonder why metro is stil skeptical about putting the bredas p2550 in the non regional track.🤔🤔🤔🤔
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.
I live right next to a busy commuter line and freight line and the noise doesn’t bother me🤷♂️ don’t move next to something that makes noise if you don’t like that noise
@@Gabbysmith717 The Trams in my city ring the bell ONLY at stops to announce the departure or to prevent danger. We also have a system to influence traffic lights and create a “Green Wave”.
@@aoilpe we sound the horn or ring the bell when we are approaching intersections,tunnels and when they are arriving and departing stations. I live right next to the grade crossing and station so the horns are going 24/7 it’s not a problem unless you make it one
@@aoilpeSee in America, we can’t have that because people are too stupid, hence why the trains NEED to blow their horn to alert the area it’s coming thru
@@steamymemes7946 💯 drivers dont even pay attention to the crossing barriers when they're down. its the law that trains need to be so noisy, probably to keep them from getting sued by drivers that think their cars can outrun a train😅
Not so. Top speed is 55 mph, and average speed from around 25-30 mph depending on the line. That's higher than many other light rail lines around the world.
The breda p2550 still has the spirt of the goldline. The announcements still says this is instead of now arriving like all p3010s.
It’s a literally useless system with uselessly created POS roaming around looking for a victim that will eliminate someone from this life even for a single dollar
I think all lines should have the this is announcement
I am old enough to remember when diesel locomotives made a lot of smoke when they ran or started circa 1960.
Excellent coverage of the Regional Connector Opening and the lines leading to it. Very professional.
Thank you.
You are welcome!
I like the Regional Connector and so does my dad.
Finally..Two decades ago would have even been better...Lived in LA...Was there last July..Anxious to go back.
Let's go, Metro! Can't wait for Dodger game access from here!
At 14:31, there is a P3010 number 1201 on the A Line. It’s from the K Line

It would be rare to see a P2550 on the C or K Line tracks, but that would be great

Nice catch of the Alstom P2000 #236
😮😡Built by Siemens!
@@erik_griswold I know that it was built by Siemens, But it was modernized by Alstom
236 has entered service and is on the C Line now instead of the A Line.
@@socaltransitrailfan I know that, I saw it and ride it.
IMPRESSIVE GRAND OPENING OF LA METRO REGIONAL CONNECTOR.
What the hell. That guy jump over the gate at 18:39 😂😂
fares were free
he changed his mind 😂

They run in threes, but your point stands
It was fun checking out a bit of the stations
We will miss the l line
Awesome video keep up the good work
Thanks! Will do!
the all silver trains are i belive a 2011 Ansaldo Breda P2550 i would love to see these going to santa monica
I was there too I behind the first people in line.
Rip expo and L lines😢
The expo line still exists, the color is the only thing that changed
The Aqua Color and L Line designation will return with the advent of the WSAB light Rail line to LAUS when it's built.
@@christophercotton9048 The what now?
The L Line will return with the advent of the Van Nuys Blvd light rail line in the San Fernando valley, according to a map by Metro for long range projects.
Nah. /
they will open the new elevated rail here in Oahu june 30
Hopefully, they put security on the trains soon.

Thanks for sharing! What will be the the service frequency in the tunnel at peak time?
10 minutes. Possibly 8 minutes later.
@@themoviedealers Thanks!
Makes me want to go visit L.A.
I like your videos
I love all the transit nerds! Yasss
There is no metro near LAX Airport. How does this help people staying near there?
One more year for that.

Do metro cars have priority at intersections? A shame the lines aren’t all grade separated.
Yeah, the at grade crossing I saw was ridiculously slow.
No they don't

that first tram sounded like a r110a
Not a tram

YES! ITS the ROCK train R784
After The Opening Of The Regional Connecter, The Original Siemens P2000 Are Now Taken Out Of Service On The Blue Line And The Expo Line
Where is the Regional Center???
2:54 What Station You in
Willowbrook/Rosapark
I hope these station and tube wall would stay pristine, and no enamel paint sprayed on them with scribble scrabble.
Wait.. they can drive automatically?
Yes
Why are you using footage from months before the opening?
I want people to see some rare footage 😂
2:42 THERES no driver ??
Yes . That’s because it’s the 2nd car . They drive in the 1st car . You can’t operate a train in the second car unless you are uncoupling a car .
🎉❤ Metro Long bauch
I ❤ trains 🚊🚉🚆
Make it safe or good folks will stay far, far away... they will vote down new bond issues, taxes, etc. SAFETY, like the metros in Tokyo.

Hearing all these tram-related noises , like bells at crossings and such things, I understand the fights against trams in the USA.

Typical LA trains, painfully slow!
They are quite fast.
I had to use a bus bridge while they were building this. It took 20 minutes to go 2 miles.
Not so. Top speed is 55 mph, and average speed from around 25-30 mph depending on the line. That's higher than many other light rail lines around the world.
Oh great now the homeless have a new place to call home 🙄
Hopefully not
Metro is responsible for moving people. LA County Housing Authority is responsible for the homeless.
thank you so much! this is really amazing well done 🚝
Glad you like it!
