Caltrain To Go Electric Between San Francisco and San Jose
At 159 years old, the San Francisco to San Jose run, is the oldest continually running rail line west of the Mississippi. It started out with steam trains, moving to diesel locomotives.
Electrified trains are doing test runs, and within 2 years, 19 new Swiss made electrified trains, will replace the all-diesel fleet.
Riders will have power plugs in every seat, and LCD scree maps.
Exactly what I have been using on my trips to Europe, over the past few years. This past summer, I was doing zoom calls, from my seat, while effortlessly gliding inside the quiet and electrified train, with not one interruption in the (free) Internet connection, as I was cruising through the French countryside. And the bonus was the concessions cart, where I can order croissants.
