When I left California a couple of years ago, light rail was being
installed from the Corona/Norco area eventually to run all the way to
Hemit. I am not sure if it ever got up and running. This service was
to run to Orange and LA county.

LA dues have light rail (the blue line I think) that runs in the Long
Beach area to LA I think. The Subway was under construction and demo
runs were being conducted as I left to come back east (around
1991-1992) 

I think light rail is much cheaper to construct that a bunch of
electric charging stations.
