LA's subway stations are impressive! They have character

ignoramus · December 2nd, 2005, 12:55 PM

Great job in having pictures of every single subway and lrt station posted! That's a feat in itself (even though the rail system ain't that large, but its large enough!). The stations certainly have character. No station is identical to another, right...

onetwothree · December 2nd, 2005, 06:13 PM

I love the uniqueness!! Something the Copenhagen Metro doesn't have

gronier · December 2nd, 2005, 06:20 PM

I'm glad Los Angeles is improving its public transport system. It was really a shame.

Yeah. But the Copenhagen Metro has beautiful sleek looking trains (amongst the best) and futuristic stations to somewhat make up for it...

Right. No 2 subway stations are alike.

Btw..this is the new Orange Line BRT. It's just a bus but still..

Great set of pics! did you get the Gold line in there?

Falubaz · December 2nd, 2005, 11:47 PM

i like that system,it is one of my favorits, the stations are really full of 'good ideas', as I say it. there are so many beautiful and well thought details. it's only a pity, that it's nopt so large as it should be for that kind of city.

I'm hoping for a modern/organic theme. Like lots of metal with plants everywhere. Lol..just a dream of mine.

soup or man · December 8th, 2005, 10:04 PM

Pics..

They could call it a metro if it was a tram... but what's the relation between THE BUS and the name given "ORANGE LINE METRO"

soup or man · December 9th, 2005, 12:19 AM

LA's transit company is called Metro. There is the Metro Rapid Bus, Metro Local, and a few others. The Orange Line's route is displayed on metro.net. The Orange Line is a bus yes. But it has it's own personal route that only is made just for the Orange Line uses and even the Red Line Subway has posters of the Orange Line that says, 'It's the bus that acts like a train.' The Orange Line by no means is a train. But it's doing very well.

samsonyuen · December 11th, 2005, 03:51 PM

I remember thinking that at the Metro stations I went to (well, not the green line). I can't believe how deep the tunnels are at some of the stations. Why aren't there machines or anything (attendants) to go through? I think the honor system is going to cheat them out of money.

soup or man · December 11th, 2005, 09:26 PM

You ride at your own risk. Cops do random ticket checks. If you don't pay $1.35, you are subject to a $350 dollar fine.
