Train Service

Share

The additional Amtrak service along the Orange County corridor is welcome (Oct. 26), but after reading the specific times and directions, I do not understand what unmet needs will be served.

A new southbound train leaving Union Station at 12:15 p.m.? Fine, but what is lacking on this heavily used route is a southbound train leaving Los Angeles after 11 p.m. so customers can attend concerts, plays and other evening performances and not be forced to drive their cars. Currently, the last southbound train from Union Station leaves at 10:10 p.m.; too early for patrons to get to the station after an evening’s entertainment.
