When these are running in the center of the freeways, do they keep pace with the auto traffic or surpass it?

I love the pics. How fast do they go on the medium? I would guess around 50 mph.

I've seen people claim that the official speed limit is 65mph and that they've traveled that fast, but when I've paced them while driving they were always about 55mph. The blue line also does 55mph when on it's private ROW through south LA even though there are street crossings. The red line goes 60-65 mph on the long stretch between Hollywood/Highland and North Hollywood.

This looks much better without those weird things at the edges of the car that most of this fleet has. What are they anyway?

I don't know the exact name for them, but they extend out on a 2-car train (or 3-car) at the ends that are coupled, so that visually impaired pax don't accidentally walk into the gap between cars, thinking it is the entrance to the car. Maybe Salaam can take a pic of them extended?

It's to keep idiots from trying to climbing over the couplers. Back in the PE days, somebody climbing over couplers never seemed to happen.

Were they trolleys or interurban couplers on the PE?
They are not the same.

PE used standard railroad couplers. PE wasn't streetcars, it was an interurban railroad.
