So this is the high speed rail projects live map of current construction

Tbh its a long haul project, building new rail lines requires buying up the land , and in California its not cheap at all . Luckely the central vally line mostly follows old rail lines , but the conection from merced to sf needs to be bought up in large parts , but caltran has been electrified, a large step to have sf ready for the trains. The L.A section is not realy being worked on yet , initial service is set to be from Bakersfield to merced .
