David Isenberg thinks WiFi on commuter trains is a good idea especially if it can get folks off the highways. Only problem: despite the traffic, US residents love their cars and would rather drive than ride. What more, it could help save MTA in NY/NJ as well. Yo Caltrain, are you listening?
The [Altamont Commuter Express train between Stockton and San Jose](http://bayareafreefi.com/city.php?id=62&city=San%20Jose) or ACE has free wi-fi.
It’s not Cal Train, but it’s something… I wonder if there’s a report on how effective this feature has been on generating new ACE commuters?
