I'd love to know the rationale in choosing Pacheco over Altamont.
- gumby 8y agoPacheco is southern enough that the line can continue up through San Jose and up through Silicon Valley to SF. Altamont is far enough north that it would bypass SJ/SV, plus would require a bridge. Also the land further south is a lot cheaper.
- mateo411 8y agoIt would be a circuitous route to take the Altamont pass, then go south to San Jose, and up the Peninsula to SF. The plan is to use the Caltrain tracks to travel between San Jose and SF.
