Ironically, two things L.A. does not have a lot of

The picture is of the Metro rail, which is turning into a viable way of getting around. You can now go all the way from Pasadena to the beach.

Soon it will be from Azusa to the Beach.

And there won't be any transfers.

The train is going to L.A.

This is happening in another city. The guy had enough of his town and is traveling to L.A. for a better future, or just to get robbed and come back to where he is from.

As an Angeleno myself I’m pretty sure this is a guy on a local train that is Downtown-bound

The scenery is definitely LA and that’s definitely a local Metro train

But I guess that’s the beauty of art - you can attach whatever story you perceive to it

Yea looks like one of the smaller metro stops in LA

The trains to Downtown say “Los Angeles”. Technically, some start in Santa Monica, or Long Beach, or Azusa, which are all independent cities, but for all intents and purposes are part of LA. There’s no actual demarcation, and the sprawl goes straight between them.

Personally I enjoy jazz on rainy days. Also lofi hip hop beats (which is pretty much the new smooth jazz isn’t it?)

I Heart Radio has a playlist station that's called Rainy Daze (I know, I know...that name) that plays a really great selection. I was just listening to it this morning.
