San Deigo by looks. SD by a MILE on looks.

San Francisco for service. I've never used LA's. I've only used SD's and SF's.

BART is heavy rail, not light rail. San Francisco's light rail is Muni, a completely different system than BART.

I like San Diego's the most, not that this matters but they look the most like actual trains, I like that.
