Santa Clarita Mayor Marsha McLean is planning to partner with Metrolink as a guest conductor voicing onboard announcements, officials said Saturday. 

McLean’s voice is expected to be heard over the intercom for Metrolink riders on the Antelope Valley Line between Lancaster and Los Angeles, according to City of Santa Clarita officials. 

“Connecting with Metrolink riders like this is a great way to express my thanks to them from the City of Santa Clarita for leaving their cars at home and using safe, convenient and economical regional rail,” McLean said.

As a guest conductor, McLean joins a handful of elected officials, local celebrities and other well-known individuals in creating a unique onboard atmosphere in hopes to enhance the overall customer service experience for riders, officials said.

McLean serves as a board member for the North Los Angeles County Transportation Coalition (NCTC) and represents the NCTC on the Transportation Policy Committee of the Southern California Association of Governments, according to officials. 

McLean also serves as a board member for the San Fernando Valley Council of Governments (SFVCOG) and the SFVCOG Transportation Committee, representing the City of Santa Clarita and advocating for transportation projects and resources to improve regional transportation for the Santa Clarita Valley.
