If, tomorrow, Google bought Caltrain and started running it competently (unlike the current clowns), I'd throw a party to celebrate. But I'm sure the anti-Google-bus crowd would condemn that too. It would be 'corporatizing our cherished community institutions' or something.
- kevingadd 13y agoI don't think anyone could decry better management of Caltrain with a straight face. everyone hates how Caltrain is run.
- Patrick_Devine 13y agoIt's still better than BART, which isn't saying much.
- AnimalMuppet 13y agoDefine "better". Everyone hates how Caltrain is run. But if you change anything - any one thing - to make it better, you'll get a particular noisy group screaming "You can't change that!" That's why Caltrain is so badly run. It has too many competing interests pulling at it, and it listens too much to too many of them. Fixing it is going to involve making people mad. Disclaimer: I don't live in California. I don't actually know anything about Caltrain. I just have an idea of how government works, and why it goes bad.
