CalTrain says wifi test successful

wifi.jpgCalTrain announced yesterday that it had successfully tested wifi connectivity from a moving Baby Bullet train. The train was going 79 mph between Millbrae and Palo Alto, and CalTrain says “multiple people surfed the Internet simultaneously, watched streaming video, answered e-mail and completed a large file download all while maintaining continuous connectivity at broadband speed.”

Wireless access might be available to riders along the entire line from Gilroy to San Francisco (system map) by the end of this year, according to an article in today’s Redwood City Daily News.
