Passenger Trains > San Joaquin detour over BNSF Richmond to Port ChicagoDate: 03/05/13 09:29 San Joaquin detour over BNSF Richmond to Port Chicago Author: J.Ferris A few pictures of the detour of San Joaquin's 716 and 713 over the BNSF between Richmond CA and Port Chicago CA.
1) 716 Coming off the ramp off the UP at Regata Drive Richmond. 2) 716 at Christie. 3) 713 at Vine Hill. J. Date: 03/05/13 10:08 Re: San Joaquin detour over BNSF Author: TopCat Nice,
Was this a one day deal? Or will there be more of them in the future? Happy "Foaming" TopCat Date: 03/05/13 10:17 Re: San Joaquin detour over BNSF Author: stash Several days or more due to trackwork on the UP Mococo line.

The nearest Amtrak stations are Emeryville and Antioch, but on the basis of the trains' actual running times yesterday, don't count on riding the detours both ways. Train 716 arrived at Antioch AFTER Train 713 had departed, so it missed that "connection." Date: 03/05/13 12:55 Re: San Joaquin detour over BNSF Author: wpdude Thanks for posting these! Mine didn't turn out quite as good. :-(
