We took our first Amtrak ride from Fresno to San Jose. I wanted to talk about the experience in this article.

Amtrak operates both trains and buses so we got to experience both.

We traveled from Fresno to Stockton by train and from Stockton to San Jose in a coach.

Amtrak train

The train was a double-decker one and it was pretty clean checking came immediately to verify the tickets.

The air conditioning was good. Didn't have much of a disturbance.

I wanted to visit the cafe but I couldn't. Heard they have kept both free food and paid ones.

Amtrak coach

The coach was horrible. It was pretty hot outside and the AC was not enough for the entire coach.

The coach had a lavatory.

The shades were good and it was really good at blocking the sun.

Hopefully, I can get some pictures next time and update them here.

I am a Software Developer from Bengaluru currently based in California. I am interested in Web Technologies as it helps to develop faster and help reach a wider audience. Its stress on Accessibility, Performance, and Security has strengthened it more. Although I have around 10 years of overall experience and have a breadth of knowledge in web technologies, I still felt the need to understand the depth and this blog is all about trying to start from primitive concepts and building on top of it. Thereby hoping it helps others who want to go through the same journey.
