Bring back Amtrak to Union plaza station!

The people in Las Vegas and California needed this necessary train set last Christmas, but we never got it. We want our Golden Spike Ceremony before the inferno freezes over.

No way it'll be finished by the Olympics, but still, great to see the project moving along.

I always love California High-Speed Rail in California and Brightline West.😮

The route of Amtrak's former Desert Wind passenger train between LV & LA still exists, if Union Pacific were to allow for interim operation until Brightline West is finished building.

[osmanhossain]

Yes and yeah of course California High-Speed Rail in California and Brightline West.😮

Though I am looking forward to this railway, I do not understand the concept of a single-track high speed railway.

I want to see it completed so bad, but there is no way they will have it completed by the 2028 Olympics like they want to.

Will brightline west also have to contend with surface traffic?

China would have that whole thing built in 3 months for 1/4 the cost. Gotta love American bureaucracy.

No way they complete it by 2028 Olympics.
