Metrolink's Riverside Line is a commuter rail running from Los Angeles Union Station in Downtown Los Angeles to Riverside, California along the Union Pacific Railroad. It runs weekday peak commuter hours only, with very little mid-day and reverse-commute service. The Riverside Line, the fourth line to be introduced, was added to the Metrolink system in June 1993.^[1] This line featured Saturday service from June 2000 until January 2002, when it was cancelled due to low ridership. As of July 2011 the line has six trains each way on weekdays.

The stations on this line include:

1. Union Station, Los Angeles
2. Montebello/Commerce, Montebello
3. Industry, City of Industry
4. Downtown Pomona, Pomona
5. East Ontario, California
6. Pedley, Riverside
7. Riverside-Downtown, Riverside

California High-Speed Rail

The Riverside Line right-of-way will be the future route of the planned California High-Speed Rail line from Los Angeles Union Station to Ontario Airport.
