Unfortunately, AMTRAK dropped Richmond as a stop for some of the long-distance trains like the Zephyr but I think the Capital Corridor still stops there. Anyway, it should.

An Amtrak train from TransBay to Sacramento, if more underground tubes and tunnels were built, would be quicker than sitting on a bus in the parking lot that is the east bound bay bridge. It takes me 2 hours (at least) round trip if I want to drive to Oakland or Berkeley from my house in the Sunset, if I leave after 2pm on any given weekday. Weekends aren't any better. I stand by my claim!
