Looking at the new schedule effecitve 10/27/02 for the California's Capitol Corridor, the changes are mostly minor ones.

San Jose-Oakland

There are still 4 train round trips between San Jose and Oakland daily. In between these are some Thruway bus runs, whose numbers may have changed slightly.

Oakland-Sacramento

A new weekday northbound train, #518, has been added from Oakland to Sacramento. For now, this is an imbalance since the schedule shows 10 northbound trips and just 9 southbound trips on weekdays. On weekends, there are still 9 trips in each direction between Oakland and Sacramento.

Weekend-only train #746 (San Jose-Oakland-Sacramento) has been renumbered as #748.

All trips between Oakland and Sacramento have been lengthened by 5-10 minutes.

Sacramento-Auburn

Still one daily trip extends to Auburn from Sacramento.
 
After last Sunday I'm sure the crew would love to change the number of 746. It figures they would now considering I finally remembered the train number :) I usually call it the 8:08 out of Fremont.
