I used the red line all the time when I lived in LA. It was crazy to me that so few people who lived there even knew it existed.

At the time, the other two lines were, if I remember correctly, the blue and green lines. Those were much more working class commute type lines that didn't go anywhere particularly interesting, but the red line ran from downtown out through Hollywood, and then on to universal where I could enjoy some of the bars at City Walk without worrying about driving or parking.

Now I live maybe less than five miles from downtown Dallas and I never go there because there's no train and the driving/parking situation is a nightmare.

Clarification: There are trains that go to downtown Dallas. Just not from my neighborhood.
