Keeping you Safe is our #1 Priority

When Coronavirus (COVID-19) hit California, it hit our beloved train travel especially hard. Following severe travel restrictions along the Amtrak San Joaquins corridor, we were forced to reduce service to comply and account for a steep drop in ridership while maintaining appropriate social distancing aboard our trains for essential travel only.

Thankfully, with the disease appearing to ebb a bit and the curve flattening out, we expect to begin ramping up service once again. It should be noted that our top priority is always the health and safety of our employees and passengers. We have been following recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), state, and local public health officials to ensure the health and safety of our employees and the public – and we will continue to do so. Below are the new health and safety guidelines Amtrak San Joaquins has implemented throughout all our trains and stations to ensure a safe and healthy way to travel.

SOCIAL DISTANCING

We will ensure the continued health of our travelers and staff by requiring all visitors and passengers to practice social distancing inside stations, on the platforms, and aboard the trains and Thruway buses.

FACE COVERINGS

As an additional preventative measure, staff, travelers, and visitors will be required to wear facemasks while inside the stations, on the platforms, and aboard the trains and Thruway buses.

AT THE STATIONS

SIGNAGE
Social distancing and other related health notices will be posted throughout the station area.

EMPLOYEE PROTECTION
All employees are required to wear masks, even when behind the ticket window.
