Apparently most of it went to "consultants" and state "overhead". A small portion of track from Merced to Bakersfield was allegedly under construction but unfinished.

Trump has cut off the federal money spigot and want almost $1 billion returned but Newsome has refused so far.

In 2008 $10 billion in state bonds were approved - but the piece tag has climbed to $80 billion and has now been cancelled with very little to show for the money spent.
