Crews have been working around the clock to repair and restore the Coastal Rail line to service. This post is not political, but it is informative, and you read it here first!
NCTD is pleased announce the completion of repairs along a section of railroad track damaged by considerable storm erosion. Crews from NCTD, Transit America, and Herzog worked around the clock to restore passenger and freight traffic through a damaged section of track in Sorrento Valley.
Crews also cleared a mudslide covering a section of track in Encinitas yesterday, allowing Amtrak passenger service to resume between Solana Beach and all points north.
Regularly scheduled COASTER service will return as planned on Monday, December 27. COASTER personnel will continue to monitor track performance until then, fine-tuning the recently completed work and preparing the system for Monday’s commute.
