A new light rail system has been built in LA.  It's not as extensive as
the old Red Car system, but it gets around.  Metrolink is also there,
more of a long-haul commuter train system.

To compare to other California cities, Metro Rail is comparable to BART
and the San Diego Trolley, and Metrolink is comparable to Caltrain and
Coaster.
