Ok children
Go back and read up
The Caltrain project is just an attempt to grab fedmoney to prop CaCaHSR
Way back, in the BO years, fed money was offered for HSR projects in several states.
Not for an actual system in any state that went from A to B [wait you mean like Fresno to chowchilla?], but just some "free" money.
Florida said thanks but no thanks , we can't afford all the rest. So Barbara Boxass piped up, 'We'll take it" and working with a CA state legislator from the peninsular hatched the dual plan, and pledge of fedmoney
And all you numnutts who trash BOB2, get real. Pissing away $billions will not get you any trains.
