Good news-the domestic passenger railcar business continues to rejuvenate.

Palmdale had (has?) a good deal of  activity relating to aviation manufacturing-so sourcing skilled labor ought not be a problem.

Related, this was also in there

Good news for those of us who are downtown, and getting anywhere around here can involve either $3/hr meters or $6 flat parking rates
