Coaster Celebrates Two Decades of Public Service

Feb. 27, 2015

North County Transit District's Coaster train will celebrate 20 years of operation Feb. 27.  

Featuring what are arguably some of the most beautiful views ever seen from a train, the Coaster attracts commuters, tourists, and local beach-goers alike.

In its first year, the Coaster accommodated 700,000 passenger trips.  Today, annual Coaster ridership is over 1.7 million.

NCTD will mark the Coaster's two decades of successful operation with customer-appreciation activities through the end of March including an online rider-generated photo contest.
