As for the the electric cigarettes there is no evidence offered as yet to support that they are harmless to people in the surrounding area. I am not advocating taking smokers rights away. They can inhale the poisonous cigarette smoke all they want , but at the same time the rights of nonsmokers not to breath the residual toxins need to be respected as well.
 
SLO is the only "guaranteed" smoke stop. If the train is running early it might hold for time at Salinas (happened both times I rode on the southbound last year) and you could smoke. Most of the time Santa Barbara will be, but may not.

Paso Robles, Oxnard, Simi Valley and Van Nuys are never, ever smoke stops.

The attendant will frequently not let you off if it isn't a declared smoke/"fresh air" stop, and if there are not passengers boarding or de-boarding in the car, he or she will not even open the door.
