SFO'S TRAIN COMES IN
By Lisa Vorderbrueggen
CONTRA COSTA TIMES

We've squirmed for years like children in the back seat, asking, "Are we there yet?"

More than 30 years after BART hired an engineer to design it, the agency will open an 8.7-mile extension to the San Francisco International Airport and the Peninsula.

The curious public may visit during an open house Saturday and officially ride starting next Sunday.

To quote the Beatles, who released this song the year before BART carried its first rider, it's been a long and winding road.

No other Bay Area public works project, except perhaps the replacement eastern span of the Bay Bridge, has overcome greater obstacles....
