Metrolink bike train cars

from Rebuilding Place in the Urban Space by Richard Layman

Notions Capital sends us the link to this piece from Metro Magazine, "Metrolink launches 'bike cars' to transport cyclists," which includes this great image.

Standard Metrolink cars can carry two bikes (presumably on hooks), the cars with the bike wrapping (or other indicators) can carry 18 bikes and at least initially will run on weekends on the "Inland Empire" trains providing service to beach communities.

This Streetsblog LA entry from August, "Box: Metrolink Passes Bike Friendly Test," has images of the interior of the train cars.
