The line-to-the-airport idea is hugely expensive, runs through a lot of areas that still flood, and nobody lives there, because it still floods. It just won't happen soon, and probably shouldn't. A dedicated BRT/express bus lane from Sacramento Valley Station to the airport via I-5 would be technically simpler and a lot less expensive to implement.
- W.Burg if I recall that's exactly what I suggested a couple of years ago and you dismissed it. Glad to see you are coming around to my way of thinking.

I challenge the propaganda that rail lines create denser development. How is that the case in Sacramento? We've had light rail since 1987, 26 years and hardly any infill around the stations. I call it light-fail.
