Yeah it's too bad the Lake Elsinore/Temecula area doesn't have commuter rail service into LA. I think there's some commuter buses that take people to the Corona stations (and many just drive there). I could definitely see a Metrolink spur heading south from Corona to Temecula seeing plenty of riders. This area is better served being developed first before desert areas between the AV and High Desert. Only problem with adding another spur towards Temecula is it'd be a train congestion nightmare during rush hour once it starts going through Anaheim in the mornings and before Anaheim in the evenings.
