Can I use a Metrolink Monthly pass on Metro train and Bus? -

HelloI am new to public transport in SoCal as I always drove my car so far. However since my next job is in Glendale and I live in Fullerton driving would be a nightmare. So I plan on using public transportation. In google maps, its telling me that I need to use 1 Metro bus, 1 Metro Train (Red line), and change to Orange County Link (metrolink right?) at Union Station and get off at Fullerton (and vice versa from Fullerton to Glendale). I looked at the Metro and Metrolink Monthly pass options and Metrolink shows me that I can do Fullerton to Glendale Monthly pass for $184.50 per month. My questions1. Can I use the Metrolink Monthly pass on a Metro train and Bus or do I buy a separate Metro Monthly pass? 2. Where do I buy the Monthly pass?

the metrolink passes are vaild on metro buses as well as the Glendale beeline busand several other transit agencies in Los Angeles countyit is also vaild on OCTA buses as well======================================��if you live fullerton you can take a OCTA (NOT METRO) to fulllertonthen you can take ANY train (either metrolink or amtrak with your metrolink pass toLos Angeles (or stay on the amtrak train to Glendale)change in Los Angeles to another metrolink (or amtrak) to Glendalethen beeline to your destination in Glendaleyou can buy the pass either at the ticket vending machine or in union statonat the metrolink sales window

1) Yes, you can use your Metrolink pass on the metro trains and buses. 2) You can buy them from the machines at any Metrolink station.
