DEL MAR
A large bluff failure Sunday morning near the railroad tracks in Del Mar will require emergency repairs, transit officials said Monday.
The collapse reached within 35 feet of the edge of the railroad ties at the closest point, said Sean Loofbourrow, North County Transit District’s chief of safety.
“One train was delayed approximately 7 minutes, Amtrak 768, for the initial inspection,” Loofbourrow said by email Monday. “There is a speed restriction in place (15 mph for passenger trains) while NCTD and SANDAG determine the scope and timing of any potential repair.”
The collapse occurred just south of Fourth Street near Del Mar’s border with Torrey Pines State Beach. Drone video shot afterward showed a wide section of the cliff sheared off from the railroad level to the beach, leaving a pile of sandstone and rubble at the high-tide line.
