    Pretty much everything but the areas closest to the terminals have been electrified at this point. Once it’s done, only the MP36PH-3C and F40PH-2C will remain.

      Yes, they will remain to operate the trains running from Tamien to Gilroy as the Union Pacific is not going to electrify that stretch of their track.

      @@average_joe8905 but CAHSR is planning to add another track for a total of 3 tracks (2 electrified for HSR and Caltrain, 1 non-electrified for freight and Amtrak) between San Jose and Gilroy as part of their Alternative 4 which was very recently environmentally cleared. So Caltrain will eventually be fully electrified.

      I believe the official plan is ro retire the gallery cars and F40s, and retain the Baby Bullet sets for service to Gilroy.

    The California High Speed Rail Authority recently approved their Alternative 4 for the San Jose to Merced section of the SF-Anaheim high speed rail line, which calls for a total of three tracks within the existing rail corridor between San Jose and Gilroy. Two will be electrified for HSR and Caltrain, extending Caltrain EMU service to Gilroy, and one will remain non-electrified for freight and Amtrak. So HSR and Caltrain will share the entire SF-Gilroy corridor at a top speed of 110mph, and from Gilroy south HSR will be on its own dedicated right-of-way and operate at up to 220mph. According to CAHSR's models, non-stop SF-LA trains should still be able to just make the 2-hour 40-minute runtime required by Prop 1A with this alternative.

      Man you really drink it hard, no way will it even come close to being a so-called high speed train.
      It will never go from LA to SF, the whole thing is a complete joke.
      I live in Japan and no state and most of all CA will know what a real high speed train is.

I doubt someone in Latvia, where I live can tell me this 😃 My experience actually is based on TrainSimWorld but I see that speed limits and many things are very accurate there so I'm curious. The only thing that comes is that during building / design phase something is taken from Europe and there speed limit has been set to 125 km/h that gives roughly 79MPH, but this anyway does not make sense as safe speed for section must be at least 110% of limit, so anyway 79 looks weird for me.

    Here in Japan you literally set your watch by the train and if it's 3 minutes late they apologize and give you a note to give to your boss for being late.
    Not to mention they keep the trains on the tracks un-like the USA where it seems there is a freaky wreck weekly.
    OH and the train system here actually makes money, not like the USA where every single train system is government funded and loses money.
