Ideally, the systems in both LA and Chicago would be electrifying, grade-separating, and through-running so they run more like the French RERs or German/Northern European S-Bahns.

LA Union Station is a terminal, but they are adding through running from HSR+local money. No serious plans for electrification. Grade crossings eliminated all the time and double tracking as well. In 10-20 years, Metrolink could be a second tier system.
