The entire line was turned into a rapid bus line. Go to [www.metro.net] and look at the Orange Line. Runs from Chatsworth to North Hollywood. The problem now is that Metto can not provide enough busses for the capacity. Metro has proposed that the line be returned to rail again, and streetcars run instead of busses.

When I was a kid, my parents worked in N Hollywood on Chandler Blvd, and I remember seeing the the old SW 1500 units pulling short trains down the track in the middle of the street(separate ROW.
