June 30, 2008 - I recently discovered the official website for California's planned High-Speed Rail system through another transit blog. The site is very impressive, complete with visualizations of what it would be like sitting on one of these trains as you zip through the state from Los Angeles to San Francisco. It also has a few before and after animations as well - and it's great to see how they envision the landscape will change as a result.The site also has everything from route maps, to costs, to the amount of CO2 saved, to how much you save compared to flying. It's a great marketing tool to sell the idea of public transit to possibly the most car-loving people on the planet.
