    Oh wow! In only 6.5 years

    Then again look it this way… Once the lining has been built it will serve California for centuries, just as the original built rail corridors have. The rail tech might change, but the cleared out suitably shallow contoured corridor remains. For centuries.

      I hope you’re right, but having grown up in California, and being very familiar with NIMBY shit there as well as in the northeast… I don’t think you are.
