US TrainThe Antelope Valley got some great news last Thursday the AV Line Infrastructure Improvement Strategic Plan has been approved by the MTA Board.

The improvements once completed will give the Antelope Valley rail connection to San Diego, with a Metro-link Station at the Bob Hope Airport, according to a press release issued by MTA. 

Moreover the vote took a big step forward in getting real-world fast transit for our residents in the Antelope and California.  Palmdale could become a major rail hub with California High Speed rail.  From Bakersfield to Palmdale then connecting Las Vegas or Victorville is planed. There are upgrading to the Antelope Valley Line bechinese bullet traintween Downtown Los Angeles and Lancaster using $1 billion secured from the High Speed Rail Authority for rail improvements is the top priority.

It is good to see some movement on the High Speed rail; we really need to keep pushing this project forward. California can leading the nation with High Speed rail.
