LA has 93 rail stations spread across at least six lines that covers 105 miles right now. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Angeles_Metro_Rail

There are also a number of new lines and extensions coming up: https://www.metro.net/interactives/datatables/project/.

The Crenshaw line is close to opening: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crenshaw/LAX_Line

Compare that to a rail system that's actually useful: 472 stations, 36 lines, 850 miles. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_City_Subway
