The Los Angeles-San Diego-San Luis Obispo Rail Corridor Agency Wednesday announced the addition of a daily round trip on the Amtrak Pacific Surfliner.
The new southbound and northbound trains will depart in the afternoon and evening and make up the agency’s 12th round trip between Los Angeles and San Diego.
“This service expansion provides more transportation options between San Diego and Los Angeles — just in time for summer travel,” said LOSSAN Agency Chair and Fullerton Mayor Fred Jung.
“It is the next step in restoring Pacific Surfliner service and creating more transportation options to Southern California’s most popular events and destinations.”
Starting Monday, June 16, Southbound Train 582 will depart Los Angeles Union Station at 4:10 p.m., arriving at San Diego Santa Fe Depot at 7:04 p.m.
Northbound Train 593 will depart San Diego Santa Fe Depot at 8:10 p.m., arriving at Los Angeles Union Station at 10:57 p.m.
“This service expansion reflects our ongoing commitment to increase passenger rail access across Southern California,” said LOSSAN Agency Managing Director Jason Jewell.
“The additional frequencies offer greater travel flexibility while supporting a convenient, reliable transportation option.”
