The SPRINTER diesel multiple units (also known as DMUs) will run on a 22-mile rail line that connects the cities of Escondido, San Marcos, Vista and Oceanside. Set to begin operations in December 2007, the SPRINTER train will service 15 stations every half hour along North County ’s heavily congested Highway 78 corridor.
