The San Bernardino Line is the busiest of Southern California's seven Metrolink lines, running from Downtown Los Angeles east through the San Gabriel Valley and the Inland Empire to San Bernardino. It is one of the three initial lines (along with the Santa Clarita and Ventura Lines) on the original Metrolink system. When the line opened in 1992 service extended only as far as Pomona, but in 1993 the line was extended to San Bernardino. Saturday service was added in 1997 and Sunday service in 1998. The San Bernardino Line serves the following stations: # Union Station, Los Angeles # Cal State L.A., Los Angeles # El Monte, El Monte # Baldwin Park, Baldwin Park # Covina, Covina # Pomona (North), Pomona # Claremont, Claremont # Montclair, Montclair # Upland, Upland # Rancho Cucamonga, Rancho Cucamonga # Fontana, Fontana # Rialto, Rialto # Santa Fe Depot, San Bernardino # Downtown San Bernardino/San Bernardino Transit Center, San Bernardino (under construction) There are also platforms at Fairplex and Auto Club Speedway, but these are used only for special events. As of July 2011, 21 trains run Los Angeles to San Bernardino on weekdays. It is the first of the seven Metrolink lines to run on both Saturday and Sunday, with 10 trains to San Bernardino on Saturdays and 7 on Sundays. Two Saturday and two Sunday trains would continue to the Downtown Riverside Station until July 5, 2014, when weekend service on the 91 Line began. After leaving Union Station and crossing the Los Angeles River the line follows the San Bernardino Freeway and El Monte Busway until just after the Cal State L.A. station; it then runs in the median of the San Bernardino Freeway to the El Monte Station. Starting at El Monte the line parallels the Union Pacific's Sunset Route (Ex-Southern Pacific) for a few miles before turning northeast at Bassett onto an SP branch. At (former SP/PE-SFe crossing) it switches to the Santa Fe; from Claremont to just west of San Bernardino it follows what was the Santa Fe's Pasadena Subdivision (and before that the Second District of the LA Division, the SFe passenger main line). The San Bernardino Line is mostly single track with 6 passing sidings and short sections of double track near Covina, between Pomona and Montclair, and west of Fontana. == Redlands extension == The San Bernardino Associated Governments is currently conducting a Environmental Impact Report to extend the San Bernardino Line southeast from the current eastern terminus at San Bernardino's Santa Fe depot to the University of Redlands.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sanbag.ca.gov/projects/redlands-transit.html )〕 The extension would follow the 9-mile Redlands Subdivision and would comprise two phases:〔http://www.sanbag.ca.gov/projects/pdfs/RedlandsFactSheet.pdf〕 * The "Redlands First Mile" extension would continue Metrolink's San Bernardino Line southeast one mile via double trackage to a new terminus at the planned Intermodal Transit Center (to be built in downtown San Bernardino), where it would connect with the Omnitrans bus system, MARTA and the sbX BRT line.〔http://www.estreet-sbx.com/〕 The Redlands First Mile would add one more station to the San Bernardino Line. * Redlands Passenger Rail will be a 9-mile extension of the San Bernardino Line to Redlands. Service will begin in the mid to late 2010s, with passenger rail stops at the ESRI Campus and Downtown Redlands, and with its terminus at the University of Redlands main Campus. The EIR is scheduled to be completed in 2016. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「San Bernardino Line」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
