Western Railroad Discussion > BNSF Harbor Sub Missing Link Not so Long AgoDate: 05/13/19 12:58 BNSF Harbor Sub Missing Link Not so Long Ago Author: spider1319 Two images from BNSF Harbor Subdivision just before all thru traffic was transferred to the Alameda Corridor.The portion from Malabar to El Segundo is out of service and in many places the rails are missing. LAMTA is owner of the Harbor Sub and is busy finishing up construction of the Crenshaw Light Rail Line on the mid portion.The first image is west of Ingelwood and the second image is near Lairport.I think this is the MBARWAT. I debated putting this on the Nostalgia Board. Bill Webb

did wonders for the traffic on Slauson. I so remember that line as a kid going to work with my Dad, it was cool being right next to the train as it rolled along at nearly 20 mph.
