Drop the shovel — more court for Plaza de Panama plan
Definitely emergency vehicles, plus shuttles from the west side of the park, into the Heart of the Park! Bicycles, pedestrians, wheelchairs, Segways and any other non motorized traffic!!— February 22, 2017 6:16 p.m.
Drop the shovel — more court for Plaza de Panama plan
To stop traffic from entering the park, then ALL traffic should be stopped at 6th Ave. and Laurel Street on the west side of the park!!— February 22, 2017 6:13 p.m.
Former Desert Line railroad prez penalized
First off, why stop at banning Stocklein from practicing in front of the SEC, his "Law Degree" should be taken from him and ripped to shreds in front of his face and banned from EVER being a lawyer again!! That $80,000.00 is just a slap on the wrist for him! Secondly, the Extremely Unethical, Bent Folks mentioned in this article, Jory, McHaffie and Stocklein DID NOT buy Carrizo Gorge Railway, they STOLE it!! Using more of their shady dealings!! They created PIR to go around court mandated mediation and got MTS to give them the operating rights to the desert line! Regarding Visduh's comments about the decrepit diesels sitting at the Jacumba depot, these DO NOT belong to PIR, they're being held hostage and slowly being stripped of parts and some have even had the high voltage leads to the motors, being cut and removed for the copper! MTS Executives would not comment as they are up to their necks in this whole mess!! PIR should not get anymore time to flim-flam anyone else about this railroad, they are 3 years into a 5 year plan to reopen this line for freight service and haven't done one single thing to rebuild this line! How can this company afford to pay $1 million dollars a year with ZERO REVENUE, ZERO INCOME and have ANYONE expect them to do ANYTHING about reopening and running this railroad and MTS has not enforced meeting any of the agreed upon deadlines, they just keep extending the deadlines!! Waiting to see if PIR's next $500,000.00 payments gets made by July 1, 2016!! Stay tuned!!— June 7, 2016 9:17 p.m.
San Diego's Carrizo Gorge railroad doomed once more
This railroad is not abandoned, it is dormant. But from my perspective, as long as MTS owns this railroad, it WILL NEVER amount to much. What legitimate company can afford to pay $1 MILLION dollars a year and produce ZERO INCOME and do ZERO UPGRADES on the line and move ZERO TRAFFIC!!!— February 2, 2016 9:16 p.m.
Chug, chug, chug, shhhh...
And yet, MTS STILL kisses the ground these Ne'er Do Wells walk on!!!! I wonder why????? Inquiring minds want and need to know!!— March 11, 2015 9:25 p.m.
Chug, chug, chug, shhhh...

Desert Line grit
One word, COLLUSION!!!!!!!!— February 19, 2015 3:13 p.m.
Desert Line grit
In regards to Alex's post, The SD&AE railroad has never been abandoned, it has just spent many years in limbo! I was part of the original Carrizo gorge Railway group that worked to reopen the line and I must say that I disagree with the premise that the line is worthless. The biggest detriment to the success of this railroad is MTS itself, as long as MTS owns this line, NOTHING will happen to make this line successful!— February 19, 2015 3:12 p.m.
Screwed choo-choo
PIR is not part of UP of course but I'm sure the PIR brain trust thought they were!! Great news, this company is circling the drain and hopefully the Feds and State Law Enforcement step in and invite these crooks for a long stay at the Gray Bar Hotel!— January 13, 2015 9:31 p.m.
