Passenger train service suspension nears one month, freight traffic stopped again with this week's rain
Construction could start next week, weather permitting, on a barrier wall below the San Clemente landslide that has stopped passenger train traffic between San Diego and Orange counties for almost a month. Freight traffic had resumed but was suspended again Tuesday night and remained stalled late Thursday, after this week's rain accelerated soil movement in the saturated slope.
Freight, which carries cargo to and from the Port of San Diego, previously had been sending trains through the work area at night at speeds of 10 mph or less. The Orange County Transportation Authority, which owns the railroad right-of-way, received a $7.2 million allocation late last week from the California Transportation Commission to pay for the wall and other work to stabilize the Mariposa slide site. The commission previously allocated $2.2 million for clean-up and pre-construction work.
