With all the trouble that the Caltrain is having, and with all the good that it does for employees at Valley companies, why don't they do something about this?

With all the trouble that the Caltrain is having, and with all the good that it does for employees at Valley companies, why don't they do something about this? Google could certainly buy the train outright, though they probably don't want to run it... but a group of companies such as Google, Facebook, VMWare, Oracle, NVidia, etc etc together easily have enough money to donate to help fix the Caltrain's financial issues.
- zasz 16y agoThe nice thing about being a multibillion dollar company is that you can run private shuttles and allow your employees to isolate themselves from the masses.
- jwatzman 16y agoYes, but that doesn't help their employees get around when one of their destinations isn't work. Having functioning public transit is a major selling point of the area and thus for those working for these companies.
