San Clemente passenger rail to reopen ahead of schedule
Passenger rail service through a popular Southern California route is set to resume after more than a month's worth of repairs.
The Orange County Transportation Authority on Friday announced the San Clemente rail will reopen for passenger service on Saturday, June 7. Metrolink and Amtrak Pacific Surfliner are scheduled to resume full service on that date.
Starting on April 28, service was halted in order for crews to conduct emergency reinforcements to sections of the track that were at risk from landslides and coastal erosion. The project will be completed a few days earlier than the estimated six weeks, OCTA says.
Construction has been a daily occurrence since the closure. Crews placed riprap, or large boulders, to protect the track in appropriate areas.
Remaining work includes demobilizing equipment, clearing out construction areas and conducting inspections. Crews will remain at the track daily between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. until June 7, with possible nighttime work if needed.

Grupo Firme Cancel La Onda Performance in Napa Amid U.S. Visa Issues
Grupo Firme will no longer be performing at 2025's La Onda Fest this weekend in Napa due to ongoing visa issues. The Mexican band announced the news in a statement shared to Instagram Stories on Friday evening. 'Grupo Firme and Música VIP's visas are currently in an administrative process at the U.S. embassy, a situation that makes it impossible for Grupo Firme's performance at La Onda Fest to go on as planned,' wrote the band. 'We will share news soon on our return to the U.S. so we can see each other again and sing, dance, and celebrate together.' More from Rolling Stone Shakira Cancels WorldPride Concert Due to 'Complications' With Previous Boston Show Shakira Concert at Boston's Fenway Park Canceled Just Hours Before Showtime Grupo Firme Level Up With Anticipated Album 'Evolucion' The group was set to headline Sunday's lineup at La Onda, which embraces a wide range of genres, from Spanish rock and reggaetón to mariachi and Latin pop. The festival organizers announced that Tito Double P will replace Grupo Firme's appearance on the Verizon Stage. The cancellation arrives roughly two weeks after the Michelada Festival nixed its 2025 event over the escalating volatility around artist visas, which rang the alarm for several other Latin artists scheduled to perform around the country. Along with Grupo Firme, the Michelada fest lineup included Luis R. Conriquez, Los Alegres Del Barranco, and Netón Vega. After Los Alegres' visas were revoked by the State Department over their portrayal of a cartel kingpin at a show in Mexico and the group was replaced by Gabito Ballesteros, event organizers ended up cancelling the fest altogether amid uncertainty around visa statuses for both Ballesteros and Conriquez. Since taking office, President Donald Trump and his administration have made securing work visas incredibly difficult for international artists. Earlier this year, English artist FKA Twigs canceled a U.S. tour over the of Rolling Stone The 50 Greatest Eminem Songs All 274 of Taylor Swift's Songs, Ranked The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time
