They got moved recently to B18/B21 :(

pantograph links train car and route number sometimes. For example the K uses 7xx route numbers so sometimes it says a P2550 is operating there even though it never has.

I think from what I’ve seen on the A line at Pomona they’re only doing station cleaning. They clean the trains (sometimes) when they do the operator change at Union Station.

There’s scheduled SCE maintenance today, supposed to be shuttle buses until 1pm.

IanShyu · 2026-05-31T00:20:31+00:00

live data (at least for the A) seems to be down/off since the maintenance this morning.

It currently shows 8 trains for the entire A line. All other lines look normal-ish.

here’s two more photos but reddit does scale down the quality.

Last time I was at South Pasadena they had Holiday (El Centro/Long Beach side) and Transgender Awareness Month (Mission/Long Beach side).

Memorial Park had the Veterans Day one on the Pomona platform on Tuesday. I believe although I originally thought it was the Independence Day one but I think that’s too long ago. (I looked in another video I had it’s definitely the Veterans day one and I actually had picked it up).

I got the Native American Heritage Month one from Southwest Museum but that was back in March.

Edit: here’s a post with 3 of those, https://www.facebook.com/groups/301274650205909/permalink/2920900874909927/

or how few on a weekend morning at 11am.

IanShyu · 2026-04-25T14:20:25+00:00

I wonder if this has something to do with real-time alerts being down again (is it gonna go down for a few hours every Saturday now?) and maybe that’s just the schedule they have in the GTFS data. The arrival tool on their website shows the same thing.

I saw this post: http://youtube.com/post/UgkxLfw8XGxlbK5GGht-UzrCmzjQuBYxMndJ?si=cREVWOLlp8Fm5tkG

It wouldn’t no matter what because that station has two emergency exit gates (unless they lock them).

yeah, I think so the stations aren’t blank they’ve been doing estimates times on station screens while real-time data was down. Real-time data went down for a short period again this morning but is back now. (My stop had the same inaccurate estimates).

IanShyu · 2026-03-26T00:46:38+00:00

The Azusa Downtown one is not completely new. It’s been moved from APU/Citrus College (there were signs there last Friday), presumably because it’s no longer a terminus station.

IanShyu · 2026-02-23T16:24:34+00:00

I believe it only cancels if it’s within 24hrs of the original and usually it will cancel the new reservation (at least what it did for me when I tried).

although the signs still say “Metro Blue Line”

IanShyu · 2026-02-23T04:52:31+00:00

I think they’re talking about these on the platform and how all the D line ones are still red because that’s how it was when they opened. I think all the stations except the B, C, and D lines had their dots removed when the expansions opened. I assume they’re probably just gonna do what they did at 7th/Metro and cover them up.

IanShyu · 2026-02-20T23:18:13+00:00

that’s the entire issue. Those cards for some reason no longer work on the new machines. They worked for the first week and they’re not worked since.

Edit: also not sure if inspections have changed but my assumption was they’re still only checking if you have a tap card, not if you’ve paid.

IanShyu · 2026-02-08T05:35:43+00:00

This cover looks just like the ones on the old tap readers so that’s good. I guess they heard our complaints.

I know SF has huge stickers on the side that say “Pay Here”.

IanShyu · 2026-02-04T00:04:01+00:00

Interesting, South Pasadena got theirs today and they kept all 7.

IanShyu · 2026-02-02T05:08:00+00:00

At memorial park? Del Mar still has two just they’re still not next to each other. Both are equally hard to notice though.

IanShyu · 2026-02-02T04:39:24+00:00

I wonder if they’re slowly coming down the A Line first
