[QUOTE]Originally posted by George Harris: [QB] The main thing to consider here is that, no matter what section is built first, the same arguements will be used. The only thing that would change would be the names of the end points. It would have been nice to have picked one of the pieces that would have connected the Central Valley to either Los Angeles or San Francisco, but the connections on both ends include some mountain crossings with serious tunneling. This is the reason that the current railroad routes either go around (north end) or cross indirectly with a lots of curves (south end). Going down the Valley makes far more sense than to generally follow the Coast Line. The higher population is in the valley. [/QB][/QUOTE]
