A bullet train between Bakersfield and Merced—two major population centers. What kind of ridership are they expecting on that?I'm sure there's MANY projections as to how wonderful it'd be.
Taking in all the costs for the project, as well as rail yards, maintenance, trains, ticket machines, online presence, advertising, etc - plus assuming a partnership with Greyhound and Amtrak - the tickets will likely cost $5 at the kiosk and result in $9,000 in cost per rider to the public.
Maybe a thousand riders a day on 8 train trips (4 each way.)
