California High-Speed Rail

From KESQ:

The California High-Speed Rail Authority today adopted routes and station locations that will be used in detailed environmental reviews for the 700-mile system, which would link San Diego, Los Angeles, Sacramento, Fresno, Bakersfield and San Francisco with trains running at top speeds of more than 200 mph.

I went to check out the official web site of the California High-Speed Rail Authority, and this line really caught my attention:

With bullet trains operating at speeds up to 220 mph, the express travel time from downtown San Francisco to Los Angeles is just under 2½ hours.

That will be so cool!
