Not great ones for public transport, Angelenos nevertheless have one of the cleanest, most efficient metro rail services in the Gold Line, running on smart German-built trains from the majesty of Union Street station through the backyards of some of the city's historic Latino areas before it emerges in the middle of the freeway and comes to a halt in Pasadena. In Pasadena there is nothing to do other than turn around and head back to Union Street.
