CMStPnP Just seems to me that less than 10 tracks might not be enough for just one rail station in LA.
Who would have thought the time would come to say that?
(Now if we can just get the Judge to bring back the Red Cars! Seems like he was here in this puddle of butyl cellosolve just a few moments ago...)
Looks great, they need to proceed to construction. Though I think if I were the designer I would go with a dual level platform for more capacity. Just seems to me that less than 10 tracks might not be enough for just one rail station in LA.
Final approval of the EIS for LAUS aproved. Appears that first step will be the new connections to the south end with new bridging over the freeway. That will change LAUS from a stub end station to a through station. For METRA and Coast line thru Amtrak trains that will cut at least 5 minutes and probably 10 minutes on thru scheduling as no back up or changing controlling ends of trains will be necessary.
