There is a major fire burning in the Cajon Pass this afternoon, I-15 is closed, cars and trucks got trapped by the fire, but there has been no word on BNSF and UPRR rail service. I assume rail service is also effected, but the news media has not mentioned it.

Rail traffic wasn't suspended long at all. Then they started calling extra helpers to shuttle crews up and down the Pass as vehicle traffic was still cut off.

Everything today is business as usual. Well except for the thunder storm. Lightning is starting more fires and has stopped work for 15 minutes everytime there is a report of a lightning strike within 3 miles. Something new BNSF recently started using Accuweather Skyguard Lightning detection services.
