Good luck! ^
I do not know about that... I have sought and found much better CA advice here than on the local forum.
How far out of LA are you looking to go? North or East i am guessing if your looking to get into the countryside and away from the coast.
Santa Barbara and the Central Coast have great rail links. Even within Los Angeles itself there are nice areas where you would think you were in the middle of the countryside and not dirty old LA.
