I live next to the Orange Line. To get to my job in Northridge, I take the Orange Line & Metro Rapid. it's a 35 minute ride. TripPlanner suggests I take 2 other buses, neither of which are express, and never lists the Orange Line, which is in earshot of my house.

What is it about TripPlanner that doesn't work for you? I agree, it could be better, and EVERYTHING would be more efficient if all of the busses/trains were tracked live with GPS. That said, I don't have too many qualms about TripPlanner or NexTrip when it comes to pulling up routes (based on *scheduled* times).

Well, good for them. Now if they could get their Metro Trip planner to work that would actually prove usefull...
