The Amtrak Pacific Surfliner will reopen passenger travel to San Diego for weekends, starting Feb. 4. The railway has been closed since late September after heavy rain made conditions unsafe for passenger travel, according to Orange County transportation officials.
Metrolink service lines between Oceanside and Laguna Niguel/Mission Viejo, and the Amtrak Pacific Surfliner train that runs between Irvine and San Diego have been suspended since Sept. 30. The impacted rail corridor sees more than 150 passengers and 70 freight trains daily, according to officials.
