@_KennyUong_ @metrolosangeles Anytime! I'll see if I can pick one up this week!

[Andy Crosby @240front]

@_KennyUong_ I should also note that the CTA has some fantastic hats too! https://t.co/jd7dloxNyi

@_KennyUong_ @MayorOfLA @CD5LosAngeles @CD6LosAngeles @HildaSolis @HollyJMitchell @LindseyPHorvath @SupJaniceHahn @kathrynbarger @AraJNajarian @JDUPONTW @Dutra4Whittier @MayorSandoval @MayorButts I would *also* really like the @metrolosangeles Board (and OCTA) to not cut @Metrolink funding...the region *desperately* needs better regional transit...

@_KennyUong_ @MayorOfLA @CD5LosAngeles @CD6LosAngeles @HildaSolis @HollyJMitchell @LindseyPHorvath @SupJaniceHahn @kathrynbarger @AraJNajarian @JDUPONTW @Dutra4Whittier @MayorSandoval @MayorButts Absolutely! An underused asset for sure. The CTA also runs frequent evening service - and soon a third overnight line with the Orange Line!

[Andy Crosby @240front]

@Cassy_Horton Yes! The article also seems to lean heavily on homicides (and to a lesser extent robberies) being a primary definition of crime. Happy to see homicides down for sure, but quality of life crime rates are also important!

In responding to a student email, I somehow crossed "certainly no need to apologize" with "glad that makes sense."

My new sentence became "certainly no need to make sense." Oops.

@metrolosangeles FYI: all of the QR readers at Pershing Square (B/D) 5th Street entrance are not working for Metrolink tickets. One reader shows "invalid card;" others are turned off completely. I tried to report using the Transit Watch app but that has been down for a few weeks.

[Andy Crosby @240front]

@LeighGiangreco I remember the days when big gaps would mean the rail control center would send trains express to maintain spacing. Doesn't seem like that happens as much any longer.

[Andy Crosby @240front]

@Cassy_Horton Absolutely - and there is also still demand beyond what current service levels provide. Improving evening service headways to less than 20 minutes would be huge. Would be surprised if there isn't a decent amount of latent demand there.

@marctomik Peak Chicago may have new competition. Enter: the Italian Beef body pillow. https://t.co/lMxNKtEUIR

[Andy Crosby @240front]

@metrolosangeles Thank you!

[Andy Crosby @240front]

@metrolosangeles FYI - the new trains on the B line are showing a connection to the L Line at Union Station

[Andy Crosby @240front]

@metrolosangeles Absolutely! Car 4020.

[Andy Crosby @240front]

@Cassy_Horton @MattFinnFNC That is definitely MacArthur Park, although a couple of different national media organizations have reported it incorrectly (even in their live shots) as DTLA.

[Andy Crosby @240front]

@beckyhartung Would also love to see fairly easy items such as TSP for rail lines, which we did (albeit briefly) during the I-10 closure after the 2023 fire.

[Andy Crosby @240front]

Another fantastic #pajobmarket opportunity for Fall 2026 (or potentially January 2027). @on_puba has some great faculty and students.

@orenbj Also the relative *lack* of density in DTLA!

[Andy Crosby @240front]

@metrolosangeles Thanks!

[Andy Crosby @240front]

@metrolosangeles FYI - some of the signs at Historic Broadway are showing the station is currently closed (taken at 11:10am).
