Urban Rail in Los Angeles once flourished as Pacific Electric Railway. Total length of the network reached 800km, which is more than quadruple of the current Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority.
If Pacific Electric Railway has remained as it was 100 years ago, most of the rail extension works around the city won't be necessary.
