Question

I am trying to take a train for transporation instead of flying. I cant find anything online for California.?

Answer 1

Did you try Amtrak? I know it goes up and down the coast and

connects from Bakersfield to Barstow via Amtraks bus line, the Orange Belt for east and west. Also LA to Chicago  etc on old ATSF route.  Shorter distances in CA by Metro systems such as Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART)  and Metrolink in LA area. (goes right down to the beach and you can take your surfboard or bike on with you).  The Travel Agents should have skedules and able to book.

Answer 2

Well, it would depend on WHERE in California you wish to travel... as others have mentioned, Amtrak does the "long" run from SoCal to Northern California (for now).

There are also the:

ACE (Stockton-San Jose): http://www.acerail.com/

CALTRAIN (San Jose - SF): http://www.caltrain.com/

COASTER: (San Diego-LA): http://www.gonctd.com/

GOOD Luck !!
