This will be a nice stretch to see by rail...nice cars.

This is going to be an interesting system, I like the high capacity design. This is also going to be a relatively higher speed "interurban" system, with some significant open running, so these are not doodlebugs by any stretch.

Doodlebugs would better describe the Sprinter Siemens cars.

This is a very scenic line on some segments, it is going to be a great ride....... I am interested in their operating assumptions for headways peak and off peak, in bound and reverse commute, and how they are handling that with sidings, double tracking or, signaling.

Is there a proposed operating schedule that they are designing to? It would be interesting to post, if there is one.

But since it is all part of the evil BART conspiracy.........Evil Thomas must be stopped!
