Are you frustrated at how long it's taking to get that train from SF to LA built?

Respectfully, most people don't know how long it takes to build a bridge. Much less 100s of them. It takes a year. CP4 built 14 bridges in 6 years. That is mind-blowing fast. We sacrificed years of our lives to match the pace. We worked alarming amounts of OT. Our wife's were ready to kill us.
