Assemblymember Marc Berman's Annual Youth Town Hall - 2024

Published | Video Starts at 36:15

Elise and I went to the ceremony a week ago today, last Saturday morning in San Francisco, and we got to ride the train, and it was quiet and smooth. So for those who don't know, Caltrain runs diesel engine trains and those pollute a lot and they're louder. But we've had a massive effort that was first thought of 20 years ago. And then actually, one of the first public events I went to after I first got elected to the assembly in 2016 was the groundbreaking for this project seven years ago. (36:15–36:24)

CLAIM

Asserts that Caltrain's diesel trains are loud and pollute significantly.
