Trying to do the right thing and failing miserably
such an ordeal? It's 9:30 at night and the metrolink to Los Angeles
has been stopped on the tracks for half and hour and no one seems to
know why. There are rumors of a broken down train ahead perhaps. So we
sit.
It's 40 minutes by bike from my house to the train station; from there
it's an hour to Claremont. This morning, I got to the train 30 seconds
before it left the station. During the ride north, there were more
than a few times that I looked at the time and nearly turned around
and got in the car. I wish I had. It takes me 45 minutes to get to
Claremont by car.
------------------------
an addendum, 11:50pm... just got home. The train sat for 2 and a half hours. Louis picked me up from Union Station, I was just too tired to bike home... But what about public transportation in Los Angeles? Is it feasible? Is it worth it? Is this why so few are taking the public transport option? Why can't it be better?
