One of the main talking points that people like to say when downing CAHSR is that we’ve spent X years and X dollars and “not a single track has been laid.” Opening the Peninsula corridor from opening day operating the service pattern that CAHSR would operate once the system is complete will go along way to demonstrate that this project is more that just laying new track, its upgrading Caltrain’s entire rail infrastructure and part of Metrolink’s

Has there been any prep done on the LA end of the initial CAHSR route? I don't recall if they've started work on the Bakersfield to Palmdale segment, Palmdale to Burbank segment, or the Burbank to Union Station segment or not. Will it be sharing tracks with the Metrolink Antelope Valley Line?
