    Siemens Caltrans/IDOT Venture design, engineering, testing and delivery (2012-1Q 2024)

    December update. More delays and signs of frustration.... http://www.highspeed-rail.org/Pages/305ExecBoard.aspx Hope the midwest likes their Amfleet's and Horizon's. Looks like they're going to be stuck with them for a long time. I'd be shocked if they get a funding deadline extension...
