This Del Mar kook ain't got nothin' on my main man, Ted Cassidy!
The North County Transit District does not know of any plan to eliminate the COASTER route.
NCTD sent ABC 10News a statement about the proposal to eliminate the train tracks.
It reads in part:
"Factually, railroad operations cannot be discontinued due to regulatory and legal considerations. Additionally, discontinuing freight and passenger rail operations would have negative impacts on our region’s economy and quality of life.
Adding more trucks and automobiles to our freeways is inconsistent with the transportation plans being advanced at all levels of government.
I am not aware of any agency that is undertaking this as a consideration towards supporting future prosperity."
