Altamont Corridor Express
In association with the California High Speed Rail Authority, plans are being generated to upgrade the current system to provide faster, more regular service, renaming the route the Altamont Corridor Express. Components of the project include electrification of the route, and possible extension to the city of Modesto. This line would provide connections at both ends to the planned high speed rail.
