Well, a Coast Daylight is in the California State Rail plan. If the proposed distribution of the revenues expected to generated from the state cap and trade fees makes it through the state legislature, CA will have more than enough funds to pay off UP and make a Coast Daylight happen (as well as building out the CA HSR system).

Thanks for the link.

Last month took the earliest Surfliner LAUS - Grover Beach and back again 2 days later.

Didn't see much conflicting traffic, did see several mostly unused passing sidings mostly north from Ventura to SLO.

Is this line underused? How about the line north from SLO to San Jose?

Seems like it wouldn't take a lot to run a Daylighter again - but what do I know.
