On Monday, January 20, 2014, former Harris County Judge Robert Eckels gave a presentation on Texas High Speed Rail. As part of the H-GAC Brown Bag Series, a video of the well-attended talk can be viewed on the internet.
Judge Eckels is the founding chairman of the Texas High Speed Rail and Transportation Corporation, a coalition of local governments, educational institutions and the private sector working to bring high speed rail to Texas. Eckels left that organization in 2010 to join Texas Central Railway, LLC; a private enterprise seeking to build a high speed rail system linking the major metropolitan areas of Texas with true high speed rail service.
