VTA Light Rail – Fair Oaks Station

Conveniently located by the Via apartments and the center which has Specialty’s, Fresh & Easy, and the new Wahoo’s fish taco place! I’m glad new places opened there so people have something to do if they’re waiting for a ride. I always felt bad watching them mull around the tiny island in the middle of the street with nothing to do.
However this station is very desolate at night. If you take the light rail and your ride hasn’t come yet, there is nothing to do except wait on the tiny island. It feels a little unsafe since there isn’t anything open after dark, like something out of a zombie movie. Just hope your ride comes ASAP!
Your fellow riders can be very interesting characters. I don’t ride the VTA often, but on my 3 visits I’ve heard quite a bit of dating drama from one-​sided phone conversations. Not so bad until I got asked for dating advice by some teenagers. I don’t mind giving my opinion, but sometimes I’d rather stay out of it. I don’t want to be the one to blame if their volatile relationship doesn’t work out. How the heck did they even know I’m the Date Tip Unilocaler, anyway?! LoL
