The pandemic has been a forcing function to show how anachronistic businesses and services should be eliminated. Caltrain is a perfect example of an expensive, inflexible, and unscalable transportation method. Don't get me started on High-Speed Rail!

Dan, we take it you don't ride the train much. Despite your assertion, many Bay Area residents find Caltrain to be quite serviceable.
Additionally, work is currently being done to electrify the trains. Are you suggesting they just throw up their hands and quit?
