-before they lay a single foundation
Take $80 Million (much much cheaper)
Pay BNSF for more sections of three main tracks between Lugo to Lenwood
Pay UP to add a few sidings between Tomey and Arden (two main track Arden to Tropicana Ave)
Pay Metrolink for a few more sidings on the San Bernardino line
Rebuild or purchase Surfliner equipment
Pull a few P40's out of mothballs and run them
And start running one train from San Diego to LA to San Bernardino to Vegas (just like 775 to SLO)
Forget HSR! its far too expensive!
