I wonder if this situation was an unintended consequence, or if they knew it was coming?
My first impression is that competing agencies might be a good thing. It might force Metrolink to improve itself to maintain its farebox revenue.
But negative consequences would be Metrolink cutting service, or maybe even increasing fares to maintain its farebox revenue stream, both of which would hurt Metrolink commuters who don't have employer-subsidized transit passes.
As a rail supporter I want both rail systems to be successful. I do not want to see overall reductions in rail service options.
I can hear Bob2's keyboard tapping, so I'll wait for his take on this.
