    High-speed rail company Brightline is starting its field investigation work in southern California to prepare for a rail corridor connecting the state with Las Vegas.

    The Brightline West project is kicking off with work along I-15 from Jan. 23 to Jan. 26, the company announced Tuesday. This is the next stage of field work, which began in Nevada earlier this month.

    “The field work will advance final stages of design in preparation for a groundbreaking,” Brightline West wrote in a statement.

    When complete, the company will operate a 218-mile all-electric rail service connecting Sin City with the Los Angeles area with speeds up to 200 mph. The project is expected to take about four years.

    Um, I am by far much more brighter than you, just not a full-time internet troll.

    The question is valid since the liberals are so anti fossil fuel and pro-environment that a train does not make any sense. Just like when Biden cancelled the Keystone II pipeline, all of the sudden, the government must install railroad tracks and big diesel trains to haul and move the oil now. Makes no sense and counters the entire idea of shutting down the pipeline.

    Also, Dems/liberals like trains because they can contain and move people...much like the Germans did with the jews.

    Trains are nice, but not the future.

    Done it, but also smart enough to extend my stay and just leave Monday morning instead.

    Answer is simple. They read Atlas Shrugged was about a big nationwide corporate train entity. Except the dumbass libs missed the rest of the story and oh yeah if your paying attn your starting to see atlas shrugged become real life. (Looking at Boeing).
