After Feinstein floated the idea in 2000, the commission undertook a 2-year study of its costs. It concluded that building a bridge from Highway 238 in Hayward to the Peninsula would cost $8.2B... cheaper than a new BART tube to SF but still costlier than the Bay could afford.https://twitter.com/ctuan/status/938523236802768896 …

Non-engineer answer: shut down the system for a couple years, rip out all the track, and buy all new cars (retrofit sounds crazy). Would have marginal cost savings for future rolling stock procurements. Bad deal if you ask me.

So building a second tunnel both systems (standard Caltrain) and non-standard BART is cheaper??
