@nikicaga surveyUSA is not a high quality pollster for California
English

@0UrsaMajor0 @the_transit_guy @bryanrbeal yeah no. brightline was +13.3 million in FY25m. The loss stuff is when you are counting depreciation of assets as an accounting practice rather than raw operational ins/outs
English
@the_transit_guy @bryanrbeal Even without crippling debt, Brightline would still be in the red from operational expenditures.

This was one of the most logical high-speed rails in the country, and it STILL can’t make money. Nobody wants to ride on trains.

Florida's High Speed Rail Operator Brightline Seeks Rescue to Avoid Potential Bankruptcy

Brightline’s financial troubles are all about the debt it incurred in building out its service. It’s viable in operations.
Either we need more government subsidy for the initial infrastructure, or land value capture to make this model work
RAIL Magazine@RAILMag
Brightline under-reported truth in 3…2…1… The company has not had trouble attracting riders. March was its highest ridership month ever. It’s because it’s saddled with capital debit from building the operation. Debt that is assumed by the government for public passenger rail.

Private passenger rail will never work in this country if said operator needs to spend billions building said systems. The only way it will work is if the government either owns or pays for the infrastructure, and they operate on it via a lease.

@the_transit_guy @engele brightline is operationally profitable/sustaining. the issue is the mountain of debt because passenger railroads building their own infrastructure as a model doesn't work
English
Is there a train network in the entire country that is self sustaining (without subsidy) and profitable?

@alanthefisher the bailout headling is really misleading. it's based on them looking for investors or debt for equity swaps not federal/state $
English
Now we take bets on who is the one to bail them out or take them over.

Only 5 years off with my prediction

The stations are extremely overbuilt and service is relatively slow and infrequent on trains that can't accommodate enough riders to be profitable (not that there is enough demand to fill them anyway).
English
Unfortunately, I think there's a strong chance that Florida's Brightline service (which is not actually high-speed rail) goes bankrupt.
Bloomberg@business
Florida’s Brightline high-speed rail project is seeking options to address its debt load that avoid sending the Fortress Investment Group-backed firm into a possible bankruptcy, according to people familiar with the matter. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

1 of 2 things could be happening here for Georgetown basketball:
1. Ed has completely lost control
2. We have guys coming in and sort of pushing some out
I’m leaning towards one unfortunately.

No. Just, no.

In a past era, Cooley maybe gets to see through the vision of an upper class Sorber, Fielder, and a Halaifonua frontcourt - which would’ve been one of the sport’s best
Happy for Drew. Took advantage at Boise and now gets a crack at the highest level

Two things can be true:
1. This sport is absolutely wrecked, and needs serious, urgent reform.
2. Ed Cooley is in a lot of trouble as he aims to build a tournament-caliber roster for Year 4.

Georgetown center Julius Halaifonua has entered the transfer portal, @chris_hummer and I have learned for @CBSSports. The 7-foot, 260-pounder is a former top 60 overall recruit who posted averages of 9.5 points and 4.4 rebounds per game this past season.

@HoyaOptimist33 We currently have between $9-10M which puts us behind PC's $12M and in the middle of pack in the Big East. There is a NIL fundraising push underway, with the goal of getting us in the $11-12M range. There are some very wealthy alums (who own sports teams) who have yet to help.
