I recently completed a cross-country train trip, that began and ended with Metrolink service (Montlclair to LA's Union Station in July, and the reverse trip in August upon our return).

But car racing enthusiasts won't get to use a special Metrolink service during the October race. Why? Economics:
"But with the current economic downturn, there is very little demand for a service, no matter how convenient, that charges between $20 and $35 per person to ride the train, especially when on-site parking is free and plentiful. It just doesn't make sense."
