AmTrak Closed for 3 Weekends Between San Diego and LA

Mike Glenn October 7, 2016

If you’re planning on using AmTrak’s Surfliner on an October weekend, you might want to make other plans. The tracks and service will be closed on the following dates:
October 8-9,
October 15-16,
October 22-23

During this time, dedicated non-car commuters can still schedule rides with Greyhound Bus Service (closest stops in Santa Ana or Anaheim) or simply take an Uber or Lyft.

New users of Uber can use my code of “Uber4Newport” and it will pay for the first $15 of your fare. You can download Uber here: https://get.uber.com/invite/uber4newport

New users of Lyft can use my code of “SAVENEWPORT” and it will pay for the first $50 of your fare. You can download Lyft here:https://www.lyft.com/invited/SAVENEWPORT

You can also call a Yellow Cab OC, at 714-999-9999 (MAKE NOTE: 18004mytaxi is no longer working)
Here are some of the scheduled projects that will be occurring during this closure:
