Via the AP, today U.S. Senator Harry Reid and California Department of Transportation Director Will Kempton announced that the SoCal-Las Vegas route has been designated a federal high-speed rail corridor, a “a designation that endorses the viability of high-speed train travel in the region,” according to the AP, and makes funding simpler to secure.
