BNSF on the UP Coast Line - Santa Barbara Sub. - Jan 29, 2018

[@SLORailfanning]

We might see only BNSF's in the future if the rumors about BNSF buying the coast sub from UP is true..

[@craigsmith6039]

I see the Coast Line more likely to be brought by PCJPB/Caltrain between Tamien and Salinas and the rest would be purchased by California DOT. It doesn't see a lot of mainline freight traffic as the majority of it goes to the San Joaquin Subdivision

Wonderful stuff.

It will help to reduce congestion the San Joaquin Valley area.

Add oil services between Long Beach, CA to Houston, TX.

BNSF should work with the Union Pacific to grant trackage rights.

Increase freight movement in the West Coast division.
