@@jackchen7003 Nope. Caltrain's new fleet has two sets of doors. CAHSR will be all level boarding. That's why Caltrain got the two-level design, so that they are able to use CAHSR platforms. But eventually all of Caltrain's stations are going to get upgraded to level boarding with high platforms. That's why the Caltrain's new Stadler EMU trains have provisions in them to permanently block off the lower set of doors once they are no longer needed. This was pretty much always the plan. High platforms were always planned for the entire Caltrain system. CAHSR is just accelerating that plan for Caltrain because there will be high platforms for them to use even before they do all the upgrades themselves.
cahsr isn’t stopping at Hillsdale that’s why they didint make it level boarding, it will only stop at Gilroy,San Jose Diridon,Millbrae and San Francisco 4th and King
It looks great
The station looks nice! It’s a shame that they didn’t make it high platform for future trains
Future trains have 2 levels of doors
The California high speed train will most likely having dual mode doors, meaning the door could do upper and lower platforms

play this video with a general signals type 1 audio its sounds so good!
i wonder if we were here on the same day lmao
You should do a video comparing the old station and the new station.
The car on 1:26 looks Similar to Metrolink trains in Union Station
That's because it is a Metrolink car that Caltrain bought from them back in 2015 :D
My goodness, that bell ringing all that time must get a bit annoying for passengers and local residents alike.
I think Caltrain requires their engineers to ring their bell every time they approach a grade crossing, arriving and departing each station
@@evanstonbalce9588 That's an FRA requirement
What camera do you use?
Any 4K video is with an LG V60; non-4K videos are with a Panasonic HC-V180K
You need to invest in a global shutter my guy, led arrival display be acting funky; probably because fps is too high.
Can somebody explain to me why US trains still need that darn bell. Its a throwback to the 19th century and is pointless.
Well that's your opinion. I'm my opinion it sounds cool.
@@fuckheinschitt239 still havn't answered the question
@@williamkettle8666 to warn other vehicles and people to stay clear off the tracks
Because the FRA requires it for safety. If a train didn't have a bell, it couldn't operate over QZ's as it would make no noise
@@AVeryRandomPerson Its got a noisy diesel engine for goodness sake
