Is there a train that runs from San Jose, CA to Reno, NV?

Question

I am trying to find the name of the rail line or company that runs a passenger train from San Jose or Santa Clara, California to Reno, Nevada.

Answer 1

Check out Amtrak's website, where you can search its available stations directly from the homepage.  Amtrak is also the only long-distance, intercity passenger rail carrier that will reach such distances.

Answer 2

You would have to take BART to Emeryville, than catch Amtrak's "California Zephyr" to Reno.

Answer 3

If you are willing to spend one night (Emeryville, Martinez, Davis or  Sacramento), you can do it all by Amtrak.

Day 1: Capitol Corridor from San Jose to any of the 4 stations listed above.

Day 2:  California Zephyr,   to Reno.

If you want to do it one day, you're best bet is to take BART from Fremont to  Berkeley, then catch a bus or taxi to the Amtrak station in Emeryville and take the Zephyr to Reno.

Calif Zephyr (eastbound)  Train #6

Dep Emeryville at 7:10 am

Arr Reno at 2:11 pm
