The Transportation Graduate Students Organizing Committee (TRANSOC) was invited by the California High-Speed Rail Authority to visit their showroom in Sacramento on Friday, January 26, 2024. This is such a unique opportunity for our transportation engineering and planning students to not only meet some of the station designers behind the US' first high-speed rail system but also provide input on their designs. In typical TRANSOC fashion, they took a combination of AC Transit, Amtrak, and Sacramento Regional Transit (light rail and bus) to get to their destinations.
