The East Bay BART Stations are Finally Here!

The reason this blog and website has been blank for a few days is because I was writing an update with more than half of BART, specifically every station in the East Bay in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties.

New Amtrak Capital Corridor Stations: Berkelely, Richmond, Martinez, Suisun

If my update yesterday didn’t already make clear, I think this update is an obvious one to come next, four more stops on the Capital Corridor, and finally finishing the entire San Joaquin except Sacramento. These stops all have interesting opening histories has well, when Amtrak began the Coast Starlight and City of San Francisco […]
