The B Line, named the Red Line from 1993–2020, is a rapid transit line in the Los Angeles Metro Rail system. It opened on January 30, 1993, and was fully completed on June 24, 2000. It stops at 14 stations in the San Fernando Valley, Central Los Angeles, and Downtown Los Angeles. The B Line is completely underground.

The line is one of the two rapid transit lines (along with the D Line) in Los Angeles. The two lines share tracks between Downtown Los Angeles and Koreatown and run for about 20 hours every day. Around 25 million people used the B and D Lines in 2023.[1]
