California water politics, October 2014
A compilation of recent photos. On the bottom, Lake Shasta, a prime element in the Central Valley Project that provides irrigation water for agriculture in California's Central Valley, both to the upper Sacramento Valley portion and (by regulating flow through the delta) to the southern San Joaquin portion (see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shasta_Dam.) The reservoir, created by the federal government, was at 42% of the average capacity for October 31, 2014. Due to the low level of the reservoir, deliveries have been reduced and/or eliminated for Central Valley agriculture.
At the top, roadside protest signs placed by farm groups in the Central Valley in response to the reduced and/or eliminated deliveries of water to agriculture. At the left, a sign protesting actions by Congressional members that are related to the division of the water between environmental protection and agriculture. In the photo on the right, the "No Water" sign seems to be a variation on the sign in the photo on the left. The 'Disasters' sign combines Central Valley opposition of plans for high-speed rail, with water delivery issues. The only information I could find on the assumed connection of rail and water is an assumption that the funding for high-speed rail will take away from funding for water delivery (even though there is no water).

Don Barrett (aka DBs… club has replied to ClintRe trains and getting to the LA Basin, they're all still using routes that were chiseled and blasted out in the early 1900's and then only partially updated. A primary reason for the hi-speed routes in Europe and Asia is that they were/are government or heavily government subsidized railroads. Except in the northeast, Amtrak doesn't get nearly enough money for building its own infrastructure. One of the reasons we don't have such government investment in railroads is probably the greater distances between cities in the U.S.
