The public transport system in the US state of California is facing a crisis as ridership is down, services are short of funds, and the state government is running a deficit. The loss of ridership because of the Covid-19 pandemic has not been refilled. The train service has warned that if the state government does not step in, it could be forced to stop running after 9 pm on weekends and limiting regular service to just one train per hour.
