Not hard to get it in action now that the ghey European socialist "sprinter" runes through there. I hate the places that are too cheap to to buy and run real commuter trains but cant run light rail because of freight trains running over the same track.
The SPRINTER runs every 30 minutes in each direction Monday through Friday, from approximately 4 am to 9 pm. Saturday/Sunday/Holiday trains operate every 30 minutes between 10 am and 6 pm and hourly before 10 am and after 6 pm
BTW FYI this used to be a Santa Fe branch line with a Wig Wag.

I'm sure Mike would have liked to have seen this. Century Blvd in Watts, CA has 1 Safetran Type 1. I also like how the light rail horns are recorded Nathan/Airchime K5LA's :Tongue2:

Two videos of that crossing appeared in the California Signals Rrxingrick Style Volume 3 DVD set. Nice to see the Safetran e-bell still working.
