It would have been a link from downtown San Francisco, to dowtown LA and Anaheim, linking Sacramento, and a few others. It would be 520 miles, and when finally completed, be over 800 miles long. Not a "very small portion of the state". It would make money by ticket sales and advertising, save people time vs driving, be cheaper than flying, reduce pollution, etc, and employ thousands.
