Ocean Eroding Southern California Rail Line | Los Angeles News

The LOSSAN rail corridor in Southern California, the nation’s second busiest passenger line, is under siege by the ocean—waves are crashing over tracks, forcing shutdowns and eroding beaches. Despite dumping 1200 tons of riprap and setting aside $300 million, progress is painfully slow due to bureaucratic delays. Residents like Steve Lang want sand restored, while officials weigh costly options: reinforcing tracks, building seawalls, or even relocating the entire line inland. With service disruptions ongoing and no clear solution yet, this coastal battle is far from over. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
