In 2000 the plan was to replace all low level equipment on the LOSSAN Corridor with the new double-deck Pacific Surfliner equipment. With faster loading about 2 minutes per station stop could be taken out of the schedule. That means with 7 intermediate stations at least 14 minutes could be pulled between San Diego and Los Angeles. But 14 years later because there are more Surfliner trains than there is Surfliner equipment, we have some of the old equipment still running, only it take more time now to run between San Diego and Los Angeles with this equipment than it did in 1977.
