The very first light rail line to re open in Los Angeles was the " Blue line " that goes from Downtown Los Angeles to Long Beach ~ I rode it a few times the very first year it opened, now it's called " The Ghetto Blue" and even the police suggest avoiding it if at all possible .
Sad as I grew up riding the trollies and subways in Boston and areas in the 1960's and apart from the stench of urine they never even tried to clean, it was handy, rapid and fairly safe .
The last time I went back I rode it again in an emergency in the pouring rain, it was O.K., crammed with commuters and no bums .
