Thanks, Bernie.  I am very jealous that you got some time away in a remote part of New Mexico - sounds great.  And my family is great - thanks for asking.  I hope everyone on your end is as well.

I appreciate your help on this.  I know that CAF would be perfectly fine meeting in London on this (actually easier for them to go from Madrid to London than to come here), but whatever you find out about the right people to meet would be a big help.

I am at a funeral today but it would be great to get together next week in DC if you have time.  I am cc:ing my assistant Anne Marie, but maybe sometime Tuesday afternoon would work to meet for coffee?

Let me know.  Look forward to catching up.

Hunter (and Eric) - great to hear from you and hope everyone at home is well. I have been in a very remote part of N. Mexico for the past several days and am just back in cell range, so my sincere apologies for the late response.

Happy to talk and see if we can hook u up w/the right people at Bechtel. It gets a bit tricky since their Civil Infrastructure business line is headquartered in London, but they have a couple of folks at Bechtel's worldwide operational headquarters in Frederick, MD (they have a campus of approx 2500 people up there) and many of their folks are in the D.C. Metro area currently working on the Dulles metrorail project.

I am traveling this weekend as well, but will b in D.C. next week. Would u guys like to try and get together then? I'll try to make a couple of calls and see who's wheelhouse ur issues are in @ Bechtel. If u need to talk sooner, feel free to call my cell at 202-412-8304.

All the best and apologies again for not getting back to you promptly. Look forward to catching up.

Bernie

Bernie-

I hope all is well.  Not sure I have had a chance to congratulate you on the new firm, although it is probably not that new any more.   So, belated congratulations.

I wanted to see if you had some advice as it relates to Bechtel.  We are currently partnering with CAF, a Spanish rail car manufacturer, who is looking to get involved in the Florida High Speed Rail project.  I think CAF has had an initial discussion with mid-level people at Bechtel about becoming involved in their consortium with SNCF, but I don't think CAF made much progress and may likely have been talking to the wrong people.   Do you still have good relationship at Bechtel and do you think you could help us get to the right people?  The consortia are being finalized in the next 4-6 weeks, so we'd like to get them together before then.

I am cc:ing my partner, Eric Schwerin, as well as I'll be traveling the later part of this week and he can help follow up as well.

Let's catch up soon.  It'd be great to hear more about the new venture.

Best,

Hunter
