California finally gets started on a long slow build of a high speed train system from LA to San Fran

The San Francisco to Los Angeles route is not expected to be completed until 2029. That trip by car typically takes around six hours but rail will cut travel time in half. Later extensions of the route would add Sacramento and San Diego, connecting 800 miles.

Construction began last year near Fresno in the Central Valley, a region home to 20 percent of Californians, because of access to federal funds and the ability to advance the project faster at a lower cost.
