Amtrak Los Angeles Richmond recent customer reviews
Great experience traveling from LA to Richmond CA. Took the Flyaway bus to Union Amtrak station. Then Amtrak to Santa Barbara and got transferred to a large bus for a 6 hour ride. Good bus driver but I prefer the train ride as more space, etc. I believe there's a train without a bus transfer once a day, but I needed to leave in the evening hours.
