I just learned about this a few minutes ago.
Sen. Rosen also says the initial goal of opening by 2028 — just in time for the U.S. Summer Olympics in Los Angeles — is still on track.

This line will open 2048 at the earliest
Idk why you all are doomering this, when they already built some 6/10 rail service in Florida. They're doing the same thing on easy mode over open desert, it's not a big deal. The question is whether they can pinch through the mountains to actually get to LA, that's the part that's gonna take another 15 years.
Doomerism by default is pase and these dorks should know better
I’m from the future. It doesn’t open until 2060, and the republicans have threatened to defund it because it’s “unprofitable” unless the transit agency installs slot machines at each seat
The slot machines don't turn on until you cross the Nevada state line
That seems awfully optimistic. My eta is never because after ~20 years they will have only finished ~20% and the project will be cancelled and that will be that.
Yeah if it happens at all it will be decades late and millions over budget, service will be underfunded from the get-go, and then we'll get to spend the next 30 years after arguing whether the line is costing taxpayers too much money to maintain.
