Video Description
From Los Angeles Union Station, I took an Amtrak Thruway Bus two hours to Bakersfield one morning, then caught the six-hour San Joaquins train up to Emeryville, across the bay from San Francisco. The San Joaquins train (and its predecessors) have been taking passengers through the bountiful Central Valley of California for over a hundred years. As you'll see in this video, the ride is still rural, still pretty, and still a bit of an oddity: not many people aboard, and the endpoints of Bakersfield and Emeryville/Oakland are tantalizingly close to LA and SF... but aren't those places. 🗺️ EXTENDED AD-FREE VERSIONS → https://patreon.com/t1dwanderer Support this channel on Patreon to get access to all my full-length YouTube videos, past, present, and future.
