Hi folks - two questions that you might be able to help me with

1. is there a date set yet for the long awaited BART extension to SFO Airport and Millbrae and

2. do Amtrak and Caltrain use the same station in San Jose?

Bart/SFO: Well, when I landed there in October last year, they had the basic structure in place (bridges, platforms), can't quite remember if they had any track laid. A quick Google suggests an opening date of 20/22 June (conflicting dates given on the same website).

In anwser to your second question. Yes, Amtrak and Caltrain share the station in San Jose.
Hope this helps!
