I wonder what California will make of a gambling den rolling into their state every day. Not a thing. Cruise ships with onboard gambling visit the port of Los Angeles every day.
What this train will do is kill the daily bus service from L.A. to Vegas.
You know the old joke? "I arrived in Las Vegas in a $20,000 Cadillac, and left in a $250,000 Greyhound Bus."
I don't know about that. The bus would take about the same time to get there and be much cheaper, I would think. I would assume that train service would have to appeal to those currently flying to be a success.
