Capitol Corridor Passenger Advisory - April 29, 2007

Capitol Corridor Operating Normally after Highway Collapses
Capitol Corridor is operating regularly scheduled service following
the tanker truck explosion and resulting collapse of the connector to
Interstate 580 from the Bay Bridge onto the roadway connecting I-80 to
I-880 and downtown Oakland.

There is no damage or disruption to railroad facilities in the area,
and all Amtrak trains, including the Capitol Corridor trains and San
Joaquin trains are operating normally. Amtrak mechanical personnel
will be adding any available coaches to regularly scheduled trains to
provide as much added capacity for people who may decide to use the
Capitol Corridor as an alternate means of travel between
Sacramento/Davis, Martinez, Richmond/Emeryville/San Francisco/Oakland,
and Fremont/Santa Clara and San Jose. Unfortunately, almost every
available coach is already assigned to regular trains, so this
capacity increase will be very limited.

Bus connections between Emeryville and San Francisco: As of Sunday
4/29/07, there are no delays or disruption to the Amtrak connecting
bus service between Emeryville Station and downtown San Francisco, but
this could change if traffic becomes slowed or stopped worse than on a
normal weekday, which is probable. The Amtrak California connecting
buses use the carpool lanes to/from the Bay Bridge, and travel north
on I-80 a short distance to Emeryville (near Powell Street), and there
is no physical disruption to this bus route.

BART Alternative:Passengers who travel on connecting buses between San
Francisco and Emeryville (both directions) may want to consider
transferring to BART the Richmond BART Station as an alternative.
Capitol Corridor trains are being stocked with additional discounted
BART tickets for train passengers ($10 value BART ticket is sold for
$8) to assist passengers traveling to/from San Francisco. Visit
www.bart.gov for schedules.
