The real problem with the station is that you almost have to drive there. It's situated next to thousands of higher density residential units (with more on the way in Tustin Legacy and Warner Red Hill), which would make an excellent case for transit oriented development, but it's pretty hostile to pedestrians and cyclists. Coming from the north side is OK, because there is a pedestrian/bike entrance from the office park north of the station, and Walnut at least has a sidewalk and the 66 Bus Route. It's very hidden, though, and not easy to find. From the south it's just awful. Coming from Red Hill there's no way anyone is going to want to bike in a painted gutter two feet away from 60 mph traffic. Coming from Jamboree crossing that underpass is one of the most dangerous things you could do. The bridge over the drainage is like a 2 foot ledge with 60 mph traffic if you're walking, and the bike lane is literally between the right turn lane and the through lanes. There's some 6000 high density units complete and being completed right across the street which will have zero transit options to the train station. There is ample parking in that garage, though. Yay? Tustin and Santa Ana have very high density for US cities (8,000 and 11,000 per mi², respectively), and both are getting even more dense. I'd like to imagine that someday, they'll run a tram line through Tustin Legacy and Warner Red Hill that runs through downtown Irvine and stops at both John Wayne and Tustin Station. Probably not in my lifetime, though.

This was nice - I like this style of video that shows the whole train riding experience! I'll be staying in Irvine for a while soon, on the side closer to the Tustin station, so I plan on using MetroLink to get to Los Angeles.

This video can really help if I ever want to take the train from Burbank airport to home. Thank you very much for this.

Your channel has been growing quickly as of late. When I first started watching, you had around 230 subscribers. Now you've passed 500! 1000 is getting closer!

Surprised you didn't stop at Anaheim's ARTIC, coolest station on the line other than Union Station.

Nice video! Getting closer to 1000 subs!

good stuff!

Cool video! Stats for nerds are actually very interesting 🙂

Amazing, Tustin is my local station :)

Are announcements made onboard when approaching stations?

One of the hangers recently caught fire

Amazing how a V20 engine can be T4 compliant!

I actually play actually go on through all the time in my train simulator game

I do like me some trains

They should make the fare lower on metrolink and you will see ridership increase

If I needed to get to LAX from Tustin with two suitcases, can I do that with Metrolink? I don’t want to pay $100 for taxi, that’s way too much!

We like bi level bombardier cab coaches more

I paid 14$ for train from SD to LA 😂

Pls pin

not enough passengers......metro makes enough money to run business ? I wonder ?
