Can you imagine what just 2 high speed TGV Thalys trainsets could do on that corridor. Distance between Oakland and Los Angeles, downtown to downtown via interstate route is 380 miles. Even thhis scenario don't fit the 250 mile scenario. Over 20 million citizens live in these two large metropolitan areas. Two trainsets could have a frequency of every three hours easily, four trainsets could cut this down to an hour and a half, six trainsets could cut the frequency down to less than an hour, while it will still take two and a half hours to make the journey. The airlines want you to be at the airport two hours early! Amtrak only asks for half an hour. The question remains: Is it better to keep 6 two nighter Superliner trainsets between LA and Chicago of the Southwest Chief, or would it be better to have 6 Thalys trainsets between Oakland and LA doing it in two and a half hours? <br /> <br />One thing is for certain, Amtrak won't need as many employees as they do now.
