Long story made short there is a potential of me, my brother, and two of our friends taking a trip this next May and would like to do so by train. Would potentially be round trip from Cincinnati to San Jose, CA. So far the forum has been a great wealth of information and has answered a lot of my questions so far but this one I have not been able to find details on:
From the looks of it one of the directions of our trip only has one routing option which takes the Cap Corridor train. I believe it is outgoing from SJC up to Emeryville and transferring to the Cal Zephyr. My question is since we will obviously have some luggage with us which will be intended to have some of it checked, how is that managed with the Cap Corridor leg which doesn't do checked baggage? Especially regarding any potential fees incurred for oversized baggage. I'd be fine with bringing it on board by hand and just stowing it in the corner for the short 1hr leg and then check it in at Emeryville but not sure how the size/count allowance differences play in here.
