NORTH COUNTY (KUSI) – Starting Memorial Day weekend, North County Transit District will be resuming their summer schedule, which had diminished due to COVID-19 restrictions.
The popular Coaster 699, or the Padres train, and transit to the San Diego County Fair are also returning.
The district took advantage of the hiatus to refurbish their coach cars with improved wi-fi and fresh new seating.
Since the refurbishment projects takes about two years to complete, there is still a chance that a rider may be placed in an old coach.
But it is more likely that guests will ride in a refurbished coach, Tony Kranz, North County Transit District’s Board Chair and Deputy Mayor of Encinitas, added.

The California Energy Commission has awarded North County Transit District a $4 million grant to build a hydrogen fueling station at the district’s Breeze bus maintenance facility in the Oceanside Industrial Park, transit officials announced Monday.
“NCTD remains committed to being on the forefront of zero-emissions technology, providing clean transportation choices for our customers, and improving the air quality in our communities,” said Tony Kranz, the district’s board chairman and an Encinitas City Council member.
“This new technology and infrastructure will improve overall Breeze operations by decreasing the time needed to refuel, expanding the service range, and increasing the fuel economy of our fleet,” Kranz said in a district news release.
