Unfortunately, it doesn't look like the light rail system envisioned will pencil out, due to the estimated high cost of USD$4 billion.

Which is really a shame because 1) It could have been useful for commuters, because the main freeway, Highway 1, is frequently jammed, 2) It would have been an electric trainset to reduce carbon emissions, and 3) Just look at the Coast Futura pictures, they're really pretty.

p.s. The green structure in the background is the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk amusement park. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Cruz_Beach_Boardwalk

It's the Logger's Revenge flume ride https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9agrhP0QgH8
