San Diego Subdivision Overview
A “near-miss” is any incident on the railroad right-of-way that causes the train operator/engineer to take an action, outside of the normal operation of a train, to avoid or mitigate a collision with a trespasser or vehicle. Actions include slowing of the train or initiating an emergency brake application. Trespasser incidents may include more than one trespasser per event.
