The 76.6-mile-long Antelope Valley Line has the third-highest ridership in Metrolink’s system with an estimated average of 9,000 passengers daily. However, the uneven terrain and single-tracking along the line in some areas forces trains to travel at a slower speed which results in an estimated travel time of approximately one hour between Santa Clarita and Union Station.

Thank you for the information on this amazing and heroic woman. She had true courage.
How interesting. This article paints a picture of a strong woman who did her best to both survive, and to prevent the worst that could have happened to her and her immediate family. I an sure she did her best back then.
And yet it leaves so very much out of the story. I suggest anyone interested in stories of Native American treatment in the last half of the 19th Century and into the 20th look beyond this nice story.
Chief Joseph and his people the Nez Perce is a good start. Another source to seek out information on the treatment of Native Americans in our Democratic Republic is the book “Killers of the Flower Moon” by David Grann.
Mostly, things don’t turn out so nice as they do for Winema. And they haven’t gotten better since then.
Unless you really like going to Indian Casinos.
Well done….thank you
