The Oakland Tribune looks at how many airport passengers are predicted to ditch Bay Area-area airports in favor of choosing that proposed high-speed rail that would take them to Los Angeles and other SoCal spots. "H&E forecasts that by 2035 the San Jose airport would lose 12 percent of its projected passengers because of high-speed rail, followed by a 9 percent diversion at Oakland International and a 4 percent loss at SFO." "There will be a giant sucking sound as you hear, especially business travelers, vacate airplanes in favor of high-speed rail," one expert tells the paper. [OT]
