plenty of cities do have a nonstop or limited stop airport express train. just not in north america. but that's to be expected.
the only way an lax express would be successful is if we upgraded regional transit connectivity with metrolink to make union station a more relevant hub for the metro area (see metra or LIRR), as opposed to being just another local metro stop that it is, or we include a westside stop along the way (as in tokyo's n'ex with stops on both ends of yamanote, or heathrow connect with central and west london) - which is unlikely if we use harbor sub. as it is now, i question the value of direct service to union station. okay, yay we're at union station....now what?
