The 260-mile Brightline West route will start in San Bernardino, California, then stop in Victor Valley before finishing at the Strip. The electric bullet train is expected to reach speeds of up to 186 mph without releasing any harmful emissions. In fact, the company claims the locomotive could reduce the number of cars on the road by 3 million annually and thus prevent 400,000 tons of carbon from entering the air each year.
On top of that, the new service will help to alleviate congestion on the highways. Roughly 50 million one-way trips are made annually between the two destinations, with 85 percent of them carried out by car or bus. Brightline says that at full operation it expects to execute 12 million one-way jaunts per year. The train will offer travelers free onboard WiFi, food, beverages, luggage storage, and hotel check-in services.
