Ok I have a question which is probably going to make me sound like a moron. However, I am going to LA VIA the Builder in March. The train leaving Portland gets into LA at 9pm. Is that LA time, or my time here in the windy city? Same goes for the train getting into Portland is that Portland time or Chicago time?
Thanks
When in March is a question. We go from standard time to daylight savings time on March 9. Mercedeslove, if you're on the train from Portland during the time change there might adjustments. AlanB is right about scheduled times being local. Once I was riding Train 11, Coast Starlight, and your train to L.A., during a time change. The train sat for an hour at San Jose to compensate for the time change. Why that point was chosen I don't know, since the change had occurred hours, and several stops, earlier. Probably operational considerations. Just make sure that your time is synchronized with whoever is picking you up.
