Looks like San Diego folks will first
(1) Drive to train station
(2) Take Amtrak to Burbank
(3) Hop on to HSR to Merced
(4) Change to Amtrak (does it even go Merced yet?)
(5) Change to Cal-Train Bay area.
(6) Rent a car from Cal-train station in bay area or use public transport (if available)
– This plan will now cost you only 68 Billion dollars (which we don’t have) instead of 100 billion dollars.
