LOS ANGELES METRO LIGHT RAIL
Leaving Union Station |
|
|
|
The Gold Line section begins with pages that
follow the route in stages from Union Station out to Pasadena, and then it continues
with scenes intermixed from all along the line, including a handful
of pre-opening images from the Eastside Extension.
This photo is from early January, 2004, the first
winter of the Gold Line's existence. The photographer is on one
of the commuter rail platforms at Union Station. The lower tracks
curving toward the right connect with the Metrolink and Amtrak networks
that carry trains in multiple directions to and from downtown Los
Angeles. A two-car Pasadena-bound light rail run is ascending to
the initial elevated portion of the route.
It is a clear day, and the distant San Gabriel Mountains are prominent in
the background. |
