LOS ANGELES METRO LIGHT RAIL
Double Grade Crossing

Mission is the seventh stop outbound from Union Station to Pasadena, and is the only station located in the city of South Pasadena.  A pleasant business district and a historical museum are nearby. 

The Gold Line slices rather dramatically across a double grade crossing just beyond here.  Meridian Ave. runs north-south, and the much busier Mission St. goes east-west.  In this photo, traffic is stopped on both streets, and gates are coming down for an outbound train.
