[edit] Route 728

This line is not operated by WSC-7. It is operated by either a San Gabriel Valley sector division or Division 2 or 10. If I find out I'll post it. But just because a line falls under a sector does not mean that the service comes from that sector's divisions. Especially since some sectors (i.e. Gateway Cities) do not have a division in their service boundaries. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.9.33.203 (talk) 22:40, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Route 704

It turns out that Route 704 may not be flying down Santa Monica Boulevard in December. It's not included within the MTA's December Service Plan. [1], but in a glimmer of hope, I'll keep on the list as the Servie Plan is tenative.

And there is NO PLANS for nor an EXISTING ROUTE 702! As much as I'd like to see it, it won't happen.

[edit] Substitution Rapid

Once in a while...Regular Local Buses (Painted Orange) are used on Metro Rapid Service when there is a shortage on red buses. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 207.200.116.203 (talk • contribs) .

[edit] Please be more specific

I noticed that some headings does not yet have an associated text with it. What I mean, is this. For example, the information under Route 720 has a lot of information, while the information under the heading such as Route 740 is not there. Please be more specific about each route. And I prefer that this article be written by people who know Rapod lines in detail. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.123.205.172 (talk • contribs) .

[edit] Image:LACMTA Rapid Bus.jpg

There really isn't a good case for fair use with this image, as it should be easy for someone to provide an alternative photo under a free licence. JeremyA 04:30, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Im all for using someones photo, but this is a good stand in plus it matches the kind of picture on the Metro Local page, as its from the same press photo section. RickyCourtney 17:17, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
What photo? Someone got an image of the Metro Local and uploaded it; the press image was subsequently deleted. Hbdragon88 21:37, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

The problem is that trying to flag a Rapid bus down is unreliable. They don't run on schedules. Maybe hte next time I head up to the LACMA I may get one. Hbdragon88 21:51, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
