are the Amtrak arrival times usually close to the ones listed on their schedule?

how hard/confusing is it taking the metro downtown?

I took the pacific surfliner from downtown LA to Anaheim back in June. It was about 15 minutes late getting to LA.

Amtrak is usually on time, if not delayed 15 minutes or so. Sometimes it can arrive late. It's hard to say sometimes....but usualy pretty much on time for the most part. I'm talking Amtrak. I have no idea about metro.
