Re: Five Trains Home for Tuesday
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýMike, ? Just a note.? Some of the Caltrain photos include overhead wires.? But Caltrain is a diesel-powered service, you say.? Sure, but Caltrain is busy electrifying the entire line San Francisco to San Jose, for a scheduled electrification service date of 2022.? At that time, most San Francisco ¨C San Jose trains will be operated with electric MU trains.? Caltrain is somewhat vague about the details, but they will need to retain some diesel-hauled trains for service at that date, and for the trains that run all the way down to Gilroy. ? Phil Burton ?

Northern California is a good place to be a rail transit fan.? Come along for a trip from Santa Clara to Sacramento on 5 different transit agencies, with commuter rail, 2 light rail systems, heavy rail and intercity rail in the mix, plus another agency that I just photographed. ? ?
