According to the updated schedule, SF to SJ, a track distance of ~49 miles, takes 59 minutes if you're on an express train (10 stops). So if it gets reduced to only 2 stops, Millbrae and SJ, I'm guessing that would save at least 16 minutes just from not having to slow down, stop, deboard and board, and accelerate again an additional 8 times.
According to
this CAHSR EIR/EIS, a nonstop trip from SF to SJ would take 30 minutes.
So I'm guessing a SF to SJ trip with a stop in Millbrae, would probably be around 35 minutes. Maybe 40 minutes tops.
