Sensoria Corp, a provider of mobile mesh networking software and equipment, Nomad Digital, Intel, and Redline Communications said that the firms have successfully completed a "proof of concept" for providing WiFi to Caltrain commuter rail service. The firms have created a high-speed, Internet access network between Millbrae and Palo Alto stations.

Caltrain will continue to work on engineering before offering the wireless access along the entire rail mainline.
