Metro Los Angeles

Is it just us, or does Van Nuys Blvd. look better with trains? 🚋

Decades after the last streetcar rolled down Van Nuys Boulevard, rail is officially on its way back.

Today, the East San Fernando Valley Light Rail Transit Project broke ground, kicking off work on a 6.7-mile line with 11 new stations through Van Nuys, Arleta, and Pacoima.

Wondering how our Metro x TfL collab came to life? 👀🚍

Here's a little BTS of the recording process! We teamed up with Transport for London (TfL) to challenge our bus operators and maintenance staff to pronounce each other's station names.

Check out the collaboration in our Shorts and tell us who did it better.

(Metro Los Angeles, innit? 😏)
