This past Wednesday, I returned a rental car to the SAN airport and needed to get to Oceanside, so I chose the Coaster. It was my first experience using public transportation in SoCal, and it was excellent. On time, clean, comfortable, Wifi, inexpensive, and the route is beautiful to boot. Cannot ask for more.

@LonestarTrips 2 года назад

I couldn't agree more! Coaster was fantastic, and for such a cheap ride too, it's incredible!

@pacificostudios 2 года назад

Most people don't know this: Coaster fares are valid on Amtrak all the time, except for a few holidays and major events. As a result, we have basically twice-an-hour service from Oceanside and Solana Beach to San Diego. That's just $13 for a 80 mile round trip.

@LonestarTrips 2 года назад

I didn't know that! That's a great value, especially for a ride on Amtrak!

@pacificostudios 2 года назад

@@LonestarTrips - You're welcome! Personally, another option is the $15 regional day pass, which gives unlimited rides on buses and trolleys as well as Coaster all day and night. It's fun to travel around America's Finest City!

@gparyani 2 года назад

I thought only passes were valid on Amtrak, not single-ride tickets

@@gparyani - No, all Coaster fares are valid.on Amtrak, except during high travel periods like major holidays and Comic Con. It pays to read the fine print.

@easthoelscher7028 2 года назад

That is interesting that Coaster and AmTrak override the same routes, it seems like Coaster is more value driven...

@LonestarTrips 2 года назад

For sure. Coaster is definitely more of a commuter oriented service, whereas Amtrak is more intercity.

@utahrailfan1946 2 года назад

Metrolink continues from Oceanside to LA Union Station. If timed right, you could travel the entire corridor without ever stepping foot on Amtrk.

@vinceghio 2 года назад

Coaster is a commuter rail. Amtrak is an intercity train. However if you have a coaster day pass or monthly pass you can ride the Amtrak to any of the stops the Amtrak stops in San Diego county it’s called rail 2 rail. Any stops after Oceanside you need a Amtrak tickets

@TheMusicalElitist Год назад

Amtrak* They don’t override. They use the same routes.

@mxderate 5 месяцев назад

Amtrak also skips a lot of stops (only stopping in San Diego, Solana Beach, and Oceanside) whereas Coaster stops at Carlsbad, Encinitas, and Sorrento valley as well as the aforementioned stations.

@davidbogovich243 2 года назад

Cummins powered: QSK95 - 4,000hp

@LonestarTrips 2 года назад

Not these locomotives! All Chargers are Siemens powered, however the SCB-40 makes 4000hp, while the SC-44 makes 4,400hp, and the new ALC-42s make 4.200hp. The numbering in the names represents the horsepower output on each locomotive.

@justindumlao 2 года назад

Great video! I get to do this run a few times next week. How do you think it compares to the TRE in DFW?

@LonestarTrips 2 года назад

It’s honestly very similar. I actually rode on TRE last weekend to get footage for this channel, and I have to say there aren’t a ton of differences. The major ones are train length and the interior is more similar to Coaster’s old interior than the new one.

4:22 these really do 90mph? Thats impressive by most American standards

@zeng6042 8 месяцев назад

They hit 90mph during ideal parts of the route, but that's not very often because the southern third of the route winds through canyons

@Adumzzinthehouse 7 дней назад

Only San Diego - Sorrento valley has slow speeds. After Solana beach, the Coaster always pushes 90 mph between every station including instances of the train going 91-95 mph to make way for other trains.

I certainly hope so! Hopefully once the California High Speed Rail project is completed, and people see the potential of high speed rail in the US, there will be more public support behind the Texas Central and thus will be completed within the next couple years.

@JoeHeine Год назад

can you get Amtrak points for riding this? Edit: 6$!!!???

@LonestarTrips Год назад

I don't think you can get Amtrak points for it as the points system is based on purchases through Amtrak, and seeing as tickets are bought through Coaster, there's no way for them to transfer. That being said, the tickets are valid on Surfliner trains as far as Oceanside, so it's not a huge loss. Also the $6 isn't outrageous, especially considering how far Coaster runs, and that you can technically take an Amtrak train using that same ticket.

@JoeHeine Год назад

@@LonestarTrips good answer. 6$ is a deal, the same trip on Amtrak would be like 18$. I think trashing the coaster to Oceanside then switching to Metrolink to get to LA is the cheapest way
