If your phone dies then you are screwed especially if there's no charging your phone. So carry a…read morecharger/battery. Just plan on waiting if you have inclement weather. This review is reflection on Grey Hound stop. Secondly on the staff of the building. A storm came in and delays happened the first 2 hours I was mesmerized. Gorgeous landmark to relax a bit and nice big clean restrooms. Easy getting in and out especially if you are on wheels . In short if your phone dies you will need an ID or CA ID of course all states accept or will not board. if you do not have your ID and your phone is not you will not board. After 5 hours of waiting this where it got suspenseful my phone was dying. Make notes the entire train station including restrooms. DOES NOT HAVE ANY FORM OF CHARGING YOUR PHONE. THEN NO ONE GIVES A DAMN. As in no customer service. I can write about the tone I got for asking for help to charge my phone? I asked for help with two men denying me to charge my phone. Deep sigh because that's sad. How we collectively are disconnected as human empathy goes. So write notes specially if this going tobe a pit stop. Bring your extra chargers as to keep your or be able to your phone. The snack shop or not one vender or coffee or no Cafe. The some few snacks but not really much. This could of gotten really bad for me when the second Grey never made it. But I got lucky I had some $$ to get out on lyft. But make notes if you have no id you can not board with your QR code on your phone. Just do yourself a favor have it ready to be scanned. Or print it out. Or all the above. To best CYA (cover your Ass) As of October 2024 you are required especially in person to show id to purchase tickets. Not so on your phone application or kiosk. So its smoother if you buy and have everything on your phone app. But in case phone dies then you have a print out. Then you will need an ID even if they look you up. Im not sure if I will come back to visit the museum next door. Perhaps one day but in short its not designed or set up for customer service. Its just a ride and thats it. Additionally the building its self is absolutely gorgeous. How ever its really stripped and its not cosie or not loved. Im not sure how to point the finger of what i found wrong or missing. Like a thing of the passed? As the entire conceptof a trainstation? Some of its views are mesmerizing. You can view others pictures i do not need to say more. The pictures are captivating. Perhaps what im trying to say just be ready or have a backup plan if you have delays. The day I traveled waa yesterday in a Monday and poured like cats and dogs. Ps i brought my lunch and my soda pop. So plan on bringing snacks. Most importantly plan making sure your phone will not die and you have no ID. Or make sure u do come with ID. Just safe travels. To those that care and work for this establishment or institution. Why no customer service? Is the system that broken? That I'm told "Those are the Rules" of "no charging or letting you help with the electricity, of a charging of one phone? Just saying you are not having a nice attitude. What ever happened for customer service? Another lastly side bird note if you walk around nowhere you will find an out let to charge. Maybe bring a laptop or extra battery to keep you afloat while you are stuck in a delay. But clearly every single outlet was removed or sealed shut. Lots of lights everywhere security is present at all times on high alert. Yeah yeah but they are rude and fast to use harsh tones and firm. No smiles just look at you like your stupid. Parking lot has a lot of lights and grey hound buses come in stop near the bridge. Ok I think I made my point but do not expect much guidance either my best advice. Check out YouTube does and don't. In conclusion this stop does not offer any to non customer service. Shameful because I saw many confused people. Then to my dismay I received an email at 3:30 something AM?? That my last bus was pushed till 5:45 AM.? So imagine that your phone dies and how will you access to your email? So I wrote this long winded review really more to bring awareness and in hope to safe someone alot of grief. I made it ok but I learned some lessons stopping at this old unloved train station. To be continued. Be safe.

The one great thing about traveling by train is that you really don't need to be there until minutes before the train leaves unlike flying that requires you to go through TSA. I showed up 45 minutes before departure thinking they would open the train door 30 minutes before takeoff. They ended up opening the door 10 minutes before departure which was not enjoyable for all of us standing under the heat. It's very easy to get around here. Once you enter, there are lots of people ready to assist. The hallway leading to the platforms is only a couple minutes walk so even with luggage it's not that crazy. I highly recommend traveling by train to avoid traffic. Best of all, they do have WiFi so you can get work done.

A lot of people didn't know that you could actually take public transportation from the desert to the city, including myself. Found out that from Union Station, the connection hub with Amtrak will take you to Fullerton where you connect with the Surfliner Shuttle Bus which will take you all the way to Palm Springs with stops at Morongo, Downtown Palm Springs, the PSP Airport and lastly Palm Desert and Indian Wells. This main hub is the center to the city. Besides the Amtrak that departs and connects here, you have all the metro lines. Everything kind of ends here and connects to each other. Start here and you can get to Long Beach with the blue line, Santa Monica with the gold line, North Hollywood with the red, Pasadena also with the Gold and even LAX. Everything connects to each other and Union Station would probably be the main and sometimes the last stop. It's a nice station with some food stalls. The lobby waiting area is quite nice with the full train station vibe. Just outside, you have downtown LA to one side, Chinatown to the other and literally across the street, the fame Olvera Street. Train tracks are quite well organized. Schedule tends to be good with schedules showing on the boards that's scattered throughout the station. It's a nice station if you haven't been. A cool place to check out.

I once went here on a day trip using the Metrolink train and then used the bus route 553 (which is apparently on weekdays) to go to Disney. I find that the route was fine although there were a lot more stops to the park, and it drops you off 3 blocks away. On a weekend on Sunday, I used the ART route bus 15. I liked this route because it was only 3-4 stops and you're directly dropped off at Disneyland's bus center so it's a shorter walk to the park. I only wish the bus came at its scheduled times or were properly updated on the live route site, so you're stuck waiting longer than expected and you're unsure of when the bus will exactly come. - free parking at the lot, gates open automatically , unless event is happening across the street at Honda center - prepay adult day passes ($6 all day) online and show email to bus driver - very clean and impressively aesthetic transit center, usually empty

Well it was canceled and the automated message said alternate transport would be provided. No one came to tell us what that meant so I ran across the tracks to find a worker and ask just for him to tell me I already missed the connection. I was then stranded for 5 hours because my phone was dead. They offered a voucher for Uber but no phone so no voucher. I finally ended up getting home from riverside at 7pm I contacted metro link just for them to tell me theres nothing they can do to compensate me for this terrible experience. Metro link needs to do better.​​

The station is located in Tustin but is close to Irvine as it is near the Jamboree area. Parking is easy as there is a large parking garage here. And there are ticket machines here to buy tickets, though you should give yourself enough time to buy it before the train arrives. The train platforms are unmanned. You will want to make sure you are standing on the right platform to ensure you are traveling in the right direction. My trips on Metrolink trains have been comfortable and do not seem to have the shady behavior you would find on city metro trains. The one thing I would like to see Metrolink do is add additional weekend service in the evening as the last train leaving LA Union Station to Orange County is in the afternoon, which is too early.

The station itself isn't that big with a couple of seating inside and the ticket counters to the opposite end. They do have public restrooms around the corner which is for ticket holders. Apparently you don't need a key to enter but whenever there's no one, they're alway locked. It's a pain when you have to get someone to open it, if they do. Anyway, there's maybe two attendant working at a time. Two sides of the track with a bridge the connect you to the opposite side of the tracks. They do have a good amount of trains that run along the tracks. It's pretty well organized but the only downfall, a lot of the schedule tends to run behind. I've had my train delayed a few times by half and hour and continue to go longer. Last time it was over an hour which I ended up having to get an uber to pick me up from the station in Fullerton to downtown LA. You really don't have control of the schedule and track but it's happened quite often lately. The station also has a mini station restaurant that serves food and drinks. It's right next door to the ticket station with more seating outside the patio than inside. Your typical snack shop but with hot food made to order. On the other side of the station is the bus depot. It's located in downtown Fullerton so there loads of restaurants nearby if you wanted something more substantial. The station itself is nice and well maintained with a good amount of parking. Only downfall, scheduling can be off course quite often.
