This is apparently what the CA high-speed rail project has built so far. “Nearly 1,600 feet long”

Update: this is not literally all that has been built. 119 miles are “under construction”. Dozens of structures such as the one pictured above have been completed, and 56 miles of guideway have been completed.

However, that's out of 119 miles that are under construction, out of 171 miles of the “initial operating segment”, out of ~500 miles in Phase 1.

They don't even plan to begin testing trains until 2028, and passenger service is not expected until 2030–33.
