The line, which is one of six in the Metro Rail system, entered service in 2003 and is operated by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro). The Gold Line serves 27 stations (including two subway stations).[3] When the Regional Connector is complete in 2021, the Gold Line will undergo a complete restructuring of service. The portion of the Gold Line north of Little Tokyo will be joined with the Blue Line, forming the new A Line while retaining the Blue Line's coloring. In addition, the Eastside portion will be joined with the Expo Line, forming the new E Line, retaining the Expo Line's "E" and Gold Line's coloring. Service descriptionRouteBeginning in East Los Angeles, the Gold Line initially runs west toward Downtown Los Angeles. From its southern terminus at {{LA Metro station|Atlantic}}, the line travels west along 3rd Street to Indiana Street, where it turns north for two blocks to 1st Street. From here, the line continues west to Little Tokyo, partly through a tunnel under Boyle Heights with two underground stations.[4] At Alameda Street in Little Tokyo, the line turns north and crosses over the Hollywood Freeway, and stops at Union Station on tracks 1 and 2. At Union Station, riders can connect with the Metro Red and Metro Purple Subway Lines, the Metro Silver Line bus rapid transit line as well as several other Metro (MTA) bus lines, LADOT Dash lines, Metrolink regional commuter trains, and Amtrak services including Pacific Surfliner and long distance interstate trains, and Amtrak throughway motorcoaches connecting to San Joaquin trains originating at Bakersfield. From Union Station, the Gold Line proceeds north on elevated rail to Chinatown and then crosses the Los Angeles River adjacent to the Golden State Freeway (Interstate 5). From here, the route continues north/northeast, serving the hillside communities north of downtown, including Lincoln Heights, Mount Washington and Highland Park. Through this stretch, the Gold Line operates primarily at grade, except for a short underpass below Figueroa Street. North of Highland Park, the route crosses over the Arroyo Seco Parkway (State Route 110). The route continues through South Pasadena and then downtown Pasadena, primarily at-grade. In Old Pasadena, the line travels underground for almost half a mile long, passing under Pasadena's main thoroughfare, Colorado Boulevard. ({{LA Metro station|Memorial Park}} station, just north of Colorado Boulevard, is below grade.) Finally, the Gold Line enters the median of the Foothill Freeway (Interstate 210) and continues east to {{LA Metro station|Sierra Madre Villa}} station, in Pasadena just west of the Arcadia city limits. East of Pasadena, the route crosses over the eastbound lanes of Foothill Freeway (Interstate 210) west of Santa Anita Avenue, with stops at the Arcadia Station, located at the corner of First Avenue and Santa Clara Street, then it crosses over Huntington Drive and stops at the Monrovia Station, north of Duarte Road at Myrtle Avenue. It continues eastbound with a stop at the Duarte/City of Hope Station located at the north side of Duarte Road, across the street from the City of Hope Medical Center, then continues going over the San Gabriel River and stops at the Irwindale Station at Irwindale Avenue, continues over the Foothill Freeway (Interstate 210) over Foothill Boulevard and stops at the Azusa Station at Azusa Avenue, north of Foothill Boulevard, and its terminus is at the APU/Citrus College Station just west of Citrus Avenue. Hours of operationMetro Gold Line trains operate between 3:45 a.m. and 12:45 a.m. daily. (til 2:00 am Friday and Saturday nights)[5] HeadwaysTrains on the Gold Line operate every 7 minutes during peak hours Monday through Friday.[5][6] Middays consist of 12-18 minute headways, while weekends all day have a frequency of 12–18 minutes.[5][6] Nighttime service operates every 20 minutes.[5][6] SpeedThe Gold Line trains travel at a maximum speed of 55 mph. It takes 73 minutes[5] to travel its {{convert|31|mi|km|adj=on}} length,[3] at an average speed of {{convert|21.9|mph|km/h|sigfig=2|abbr=on}} over its length. The Gold Line is particularly slow through the Highland Park area, where trains reach speeds of only {{convert|20|mph|km/h|sigfig=2|abbr=on}} due to several street crossings and through the curves, where trains travel at about {{convert|25|mph|km/h|sigfig=2|abbr=on}}. RidershipFollowing the extension to East Los Angeles in 2009, the line's ridership increased to almost 30,000 daily boardings.[1] {{As of|2012|October}}, the average weekday daily boardings for the Gold Line stood at 42,417 and {{As of|2014|December|lc=y}} the average daily weekday boardings had increased to 44,707. Following the extension to Azusa, ridership rose to 49,238 as of May 2016.[1][2] History{{Main|History of Los Angeles Metro Rail and Busway}}Much of the Gold Line's current right-of-way through the San Gabriel Valley was originally built by the Los Angeles and San Gabriel Valley Railroad in 1885, eventually taken over by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway, as part of the Pasadena Subdivision[7], which saw Amtrak service into the early 1990s.[8] This segment was part of the original plan for the Metro Blue Line, but when a ban on sales tax spending on subway tunnels passed in 1998, the project became a separate line terminating at Union Station.[9] The original Gold Line, between Union Station and Sierra Madre Villa, opened July 26, 2003.[10][11] The Gold Line Eastside Extension, a separate segment following all new right-of-way extending east from Union Station to East Los Angeles, opened on November 15, 2009.[12][13][14] The first stage of the Gold Line Foothill Extension, running from Sierra Madre Villa station in Pasadena to APU/Citrus College station in Azusa, opened on March 5, 2016.[15] Future developmentsRegional Connector Transit Project{{main|Regional Connector}}The Regional Connector is an under-construction light rail subway corridor through Downtown Los Angeles. It is designed to connect the current Blue and Expo Lines to the current Gold Line and allow a seamless one-seat ride between the Blue and Expo Lines' current terminus at 7th Street/Metro Center and Union Station. Once this project is completed, the northern leg of the Gold Line between Little Tokyo and Azusa will be joined with the current Blue Line. The Eastside leg of the Gold Line will be connected to the current Expo Line. As part of the project, the current at-grade Little Tokyo/Arts District station will be demolished and rebuilt as a subway station approximately 500 feet south and on the opposite side of Alameda from its current location. In part as a result of the routing changes that the Regional Connector will bring, Metro is planning on abandoning its currently naming system for Metro Rail and Busway lines, moving from color names to letters. In the renaming proposal approved by Metro, the combined Eastside Gold Line/Expo Line will together form the "E Line," which will retain the current gold coloring on maps. The combined San Gabriel Valley Gold Line/Blue Line will become the "A Line," which will be colored blue on maps.[16] The "A Line" will become the longest line in the Metro Rail system, and likely the longest urban rail line in the world. The groundbreaking for the construction of the Regional Connector took place on September 30, 2014 and it is expected to be in public service by 2021. Foothill Extension Phase 2B{{main|Gold Line Foothill Extension}}A second phase of the Foothill Extension, to Montclair in San Bernardino County, had a groundbreaking ceremony on December 2 2017, with a current estimated completion date of 2026.[17] Eastside Extension Phase 2{{main|Eastside Transit Corridor}}Metro is considering a new extension of the Metro Gold Line in the Eastside. This second phase of the Eastside Corridor would extend the Gold Line's southern leg eastward, from its current terminus at Atlantic station to Whittier. As of August 2010, Metro has completed the Alternatives Analysis phase. The next step for Metro is to conduct an initial environmental study, leading to publication and approval of a Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR).[18][19] The two alignments to be studied in the DEIR are:
Station listingThe following table lists the current stations of the Gold Line, from south to north.
OperationsMaintenance facilitiesThe Gold Line is operated in both the Division 21 Yard (Los Angeles River Yard) and Division 24 yard (Monrovia yard). Division 21 is located on Vin Scully Drive (Elysian Park Drive) overlooking the Los Angeles River, and Division 24 is located south of the I-210 freeway in Monrovia. These yards stores the fleet used on the Gold Line. It is also where maintenance is done on the fleet. Trains can access these yards via a single track junction. Rolling stockGold Line trains are typically two-car trains. During peak hours on weekdays, some three-car trains run.[27][28] On New Year's Day, the Gold Line uses three-car trains for service to the Tournament of Roses Parade and the Rose Bowl Game. Service operates from approximately 4 am to 1 am, with service approximately every 7 minutes during peak hours, 12 minutes middays and on weekends and 20 minutes until the close of service. Trains are composed of articulated light rail vehicles (LRVs) which are compatible with Metro's light rail systems. As of April 2012, the Gold Line uses 50 AnsaldoBreda P2550 LRVs (701–750). P2550s have been featured in many television ads by Metro. In April 2012, Metro transferred the last of the Gold Line's Siemens P2000 trains to the Blue Line to transfer some overhauled Nippon Sharyo P850 (100–153) cars to Expo Phase 1 while the Ansaldobreda P2550 cars replaced the Siemens P2000 trains on the Gold Line. Commemorative carsOn December 21, 2007, Metro introduced cars 233 and 235, which are the special commemorative trains for the 119th Tournament of Roses Parade and the 94th Rose Bowl Game. These are known as the 2008 "Tournament Train".[29] AdvertisingOn October 3, 2007, Metro Gold Line trains began having advertisement banners on the sides of trains, like on the Metro Green Line. On February 13, 2008, Metro removed the banner ads on all Metro Gold Line trains. But in mid-June 2008, banners promoting the Long Range Transportation Plan were added on car 246. On July 14, 2008, banner ads were added on cars 229, 235, 236, 238, 239, 244, 250 and 302. IncidentsThe following noteworthy incidents have occurred on the Gold Line since opening.
