A couple of years ago some survey folks showed up in my neighborhood and set up shop. They were surveying routes for HS Rail out of Palmdale. One would destroy our neighborhood and now here we are several years later in limbo. Our property values have been ruined and they are in no hurry to pick a route. I still pay full taxes as if my land was worth anything to anybody. Jerry Brown and the democrats who run this state could care less. Any thinking person knows this entire project is a democratic ego trip, a boondoggle. It is Billons over budget and once built will not support itself requiring our tax dollars to keep running. I marvel at gas prices outside California and watch my retirement income shrink as Sacramento takes more and more money to support their idiotic agenda. Once this is resolved I am outta here. Good Luck SCV and AV, you are going to need it.
Good job SCV now I can’t get to Vegas faster! I guess the Mormons who run this town don’t like gambling…..
It was never part of original plan and never will be. Where on earth did you hear it was going to Vegas?
A private company is supposed to build this train route from Victorville to Vegas. A future connection between Palmdale and Victorville has been explored, but not as part of the original HSRA SF to LA train service.
First of all let’s not bash Mormons, their some of the better people here. And yes years ago they did talk about going to Vegas,then nothing said until this scheme came up to go to Burbank.
Right Ellen. Never say never tho.lol

How would you like it if your house and Childs school were demolished to build the stupid train tracks? How about doing something about our water supply instead? Just my thoughts.

I’m in the line of fire to, should it go through SCV, Agua Dulce and Acton into Palmdale.
We needed that. People dont realize traffic gets worse every year.
Less traffic is not a reason to forcefully take peoples homes, businesses, and property away
Well done SCV.
The “not so high speed” rail was never going to Vegas. It is a project that nobody needs, existing only to line the pockets of a group of lawyers and contractors who have their eyes firmly fixed on that tax money.
The mormons who run this town care not for our gambling needs
Seems all the comments prove that people failed to read the first two lines.
Nor did they research the HSRA before commenting.
Maybe it will take us from Newhall to Saugus faster when Bouquet is all jammed up.

Have any of you heard of the age old governmental right to take private property for just compensation when it is necessary for the public interest?? It is called THE RIGHT OF EMINENT DOMAIN, and is well-established in law.
How do you think our highway system got built? Or our water supply system?
From time to time, the government needs to appropriate private property for a greater public good. The people affected by it are generally very unhappy about it, but so it goes.
This HSR project may be inappropriate based upon the merits, but if we get to the point where we won’t accept new transportation projects because they disrupt some peoples lives, e are going to be even more constrained in traveling where we need to go than we already are.
They should scrap this dumb idea, and use the money to build a desalination plant for our water supply.
Then it better be a state run desalination plant rather than private.
The proposed high speedrails

If your home value went down. Have it reassessed.
There will be a station at Bob Hope/Burbank airport.
There are plans for expansion Palmdale to Las Vegas. I think it was discussed at one of the very first meetings.
Wouldn’t that be wonderful? Our money can be used for something that is useful.
Will be great if this thing is stopped. Not good for our community or our pockets. Praying this is the case.
We do not need a train that will ultimately costs schools to close, house tracts to be demo’d and the main street of San Fernando to be put out of business. We need this money to go for water accumulation, water research and water reclamation. WE DO NOT NEED BROWN’s BS on this. Enough is enough.
Well how deep does it go how much is Obama getting don’t forget they are in bed together (demos) he doesn’t do anything but for $ he’ll ruin a country
Empeach both now save a country
