Biggest hindrance is the heavy freight traffic through the Cajon Pass. Adding another track is probably the best solution.
Perhaps if BNSF is triple-tracking Cajon, how much would it cost to add a 4th track over Cajon, and extra tracks on the lines as far as Victorville? It should at least be explored.

They do eventually hope to get it over Cajon Pass, and possibly connect with the proposed California High Speed Rail line:

Hoisting the FRA by its own petard?DesertXpress will utilize proven, off-the-shelf European steel wheel on rail high-speed trains, customized for the unique setting of the corridor. Train interiors will be configured to maximize entertainment and passenger comfort.
