North County resident Brian Legal enjoys the convenience and scenic views of riding the train along San Diego's coast but has faced disruptions due to track closures. SANDAG is planning the LOSSAN Rail Realignment project to enhance safety and reliability, potentially rerouting tracks through tunnels in Del Mar. There's a debate on whether to electrify the trains, with proponents like Californians for Electric Rail advocating for electric trains due to their speed, energy efficiency, and environmental benefits. While electric trains require upfront investment, they offer faster travel times and lower environmental impact compared to diesel. SANDAG is seeking public input on the project, considering factors like overhead wires, community preferences, and alignment with the California State Rail Plan. The North County Transit District is open to exploring electric trains or other zero-emission options, emphasizing the importance of community participation in deciding the future of rail transportation in San Diego.
