Video of the Day: A Day in the Life of a Metrolink Engineer

Speaking of metro and metrolink...is it just me or is it REALLY difficult to figure out how to get from Burbank airport to the subway station and vice versa? I gave it a valiant attempt -- and yeah, I'm willing to concede I'm just not that aware but part of me thinks if *I* can't do it, other people can't either.

@CityofDodgers, it's easy once you know what to do, but you're right, Burbank's transit system almost hides the fact.

One thing to watch out for, though, is the time table. The bus headways operate around rush hour times and not the middle of the day. That's how it was, at least when I did the linked journey.
