Quote:Let's wait until we actually see the details before getting excited. This isn't coming from Caltrain but rather a pro-electrify blog that doesn't seem to understand the subject of freight railroading very well.
Ending "heavy" freight has been argued for some time. Clem Tiller, who posts here, made an
argument in 2009 that freight was a luxury that Caltrain and HSR could not afford.
I know the linked blog is aware of Clem's work, and I know that Caltrain is as well. (Although Caltrain is not always happy about Clem's
work in 2009 or
today =)
