BINGO! A pipeline from the northern rivers dumping millions of gallons of fresh water into the ocean every hour would pay for itself many times over.

Maybe they will be bullet buses. I think a later phase of the project goes to San Jose and terminates at the CalTrain station in SF. That’s a long ways in the future, though.

The Wright brothers are spinning in their graves in sync with the founding fathers. There’s a whole lot of shakin’ going on.

dozens of bridges or viaducts... Maybe they could find shortcuts to save money. Use the experience of Seattle with Bertha. /sar

Got to have bullet trains to get from one “Region” to the other, The Wildlands Project was finally completed so over 75% of the land is now off limits and of course to get the Participants to The Hunger Games on time.
The future is on the way.

Wonder where choo-choo Willie is in all of that?
He MUST be involved in the planning!

They won’t allow tracking for fear of causing earthquakes but they are building huge tunnels through fault lines?
To: BAW
It’s highly unlikely this thing will actually be completed as California is much more likely to go bankrupt before then.
