CALIFORNIA'S PASSENGER RAIL SUCCESS STORY
Three state supported corridors of intercity passenger rail in California: the Pacific Surfliner, the Capitol, and the San Joaquin, are a billion dollar investment that is paying off in steadily rising ridership. They carry 2.9 million passengers annually; the number of daily trains has been steadily increasing (23 trains todate); and with each service expansion comes a surge of new riders. The article also discusses continuing plans to further expand passenger rail transportation in the state.
