Caltrain is purchasing new high-performance electric trains

High efficiency and clean?!  About time you say.  Here is what CalTrain is posting: “purchasing new high-performance electric trains to replace the current diesel locomotive trains as part of the Peninsula Corridor Electrification Project. The electric trains will stop and start faster than diesel trains which means Caltrain could increase capacity with a more user-friendly, efficient schedule that will provide consistent, attractive service with more frequent stops without sacrificing speed.  Caltrain’s new electric trains are a key component of the Caltrain Modernization (CalMod) program that will enhance the speed, capacity, safety, and comfort of Caltrain’s commuter rail service.”  Ok when will this happen?  They post 2021.  Yikes, still a long time away.
