That may be because of problems acquiring rights-of-way there.<br /><br /> I just think that not extending the line to Ontario International Airport (ONT) in Ontario, #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/ca" rel="tag">CA</a></span>, is likely to doom the train to low ridership. If I'm driving from #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/losangeles" rel="tag">Los_Angeles</a></span>, by the time I get to the Mojave Desert, I've already spent half of the time it takes to get to Las Vegas. Am I then going to pull into the park and ride and hop on the train? I just do not think most people will do so. <br /><br /> The extra hour of drive time is probably the difference between driving or hopping on a train.<br /><br /> NOTE: I'm in favor of the high speed rail link. I just think they need to extend it, so that the SW terminus is closer to most of the people who'll ride it.291648http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/post2020-04-26T23:39:17+00:002020-04-26T23:39:17+00:00http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/personhttps://nu.federati.net/user/2lnxw48a1Main account.
