It would also be nice if they can speed it up some along stretch heading north from USC to Downtown LA, it's so slow it's torture.

The other thing I don't understand is why the Farmdale Avenue station isn't open. They actually announce the stop and even paused there. I haven't seen anything physically that's preventing them from opening this station.

I have a feeling Farmdale will be busy with kids in the morning and early afternoon since it is at the front door of Dorsey High School.
I suspect that the pause is required by the operating rules for the station; wasn't the whole point of having one to slow down trains in the area? Why it isn't taking passengers I have no idea.

Steth: funny to think of CC as being so crucialt but clearly with some reasonable way of connecting to DT CC and local development, it could be a major stop. A very decent employment, entertainment and civic center.
