    Surfliner bustitution/service disruption 9/7-9/9 - what to do for ANA

    I've had no problems getting on bustitutions with an unreserved thru-ticket stub. In fact, since you have to call to get AGR tickets that include a bus portion, I just order tickets for another day before so I can pick them up. You shouldn't have a problem.

    Pacific Surfliner Biz Class

    Sometimes you have to walk from BC to the Cafe car and show your stub to get your goodies.

    Friday afternoon train 785 boards hundreds of people at SOL; most seem to be college students.

    If I redeem AGR points for a roomette, is that two people or one?

    Ditch Lights (cont.), the "Whoop!" noise, and a bell?

    Doesn't the bell let people know the train is moving without requiring them to lay on the horn through a crowded station?

    Standard Consists for Regional Trains

    The Del Mar trains they run (opening of the Del Mar races, etc) often are double consists of Pacific Surfliners; literally two trains stuck together, putting a cafe car on each end.

    Scaring fish

    Given the recent "track" record, it probably would have exploded.

    Business Class Pacific Surfliner

    Wow. I've seen people removed from the Surfliner for getting feisty about not giving up the empty seat.

    Business Class Pacific Surfliner

    I think they've turned off the Wifi. I overheard a conductor say that it had something to do with interference going through camp Pendleton or something.

    LAX

    However, if you don't pay until after the trip, it's now a debt.

    Business Class Pacific Surfliner

    Basically it's only worth it if you want the wine, and consider the rest as a personal Amtrak subsidy.

    Pacific Surfliner tickets

    They're also long enough for a double-length Surfliner (two consists stuck together, an engine at either end). Those trains are the best, because they have two cafe cars.

    Pacific Surfliner tickets

    Google Maps shows how long Anaheim station is (they even have a train!). If you were at the "wrong" end and reading a book it could be that you didn't notice the train until after it had basically finished debarking people.

    Pacific Surfliner tickets

    I'm not certain how people got off the train without the doors being opened. But it shouldn't be an issue.

    Pacific Surfliner Schedule Change Starting 7/15/11

    I wonder why they didn't just make 792 continue to San Diego.
