LA Transit Strike Ends

Reuters is reporting that the 35 day old Los Angeles transit strike is at an end.

MTA and the mechanics' union today announced an agreement ending the five-week strike. Transit workers will return to work as early as tomorrow. The LA Times reports:

Limited bus service is scheduled to resume Tuesday and partial rail service will return by Wednesday, according to union and transit officials, who held a joint press conference this afternoon to announce settlement of the strike that has affected about 400,000 bus and rail patrons.

With any luck the nation's third-largest transit agency will be back on the roads and rails soon.

...oh, and I think some actor was made a judge or something
