California Thruway Motorcoaches

From wineries to national parks, beaches to deserts — Amtrak Thruway is the way to get there.

Simplify and streamline your travel between Amtrak California train stations and dozens of additional destinations with seamless, dedicated Thruway motorcoach connections. Enjoy modern reclining seats on restroom-equipped motorcoaches to the city of your choice. Due to state law, tickets for California Thruway services are sold only as part of your rail trip.

Made possible by Caltrans, Amtrak dedicated bus routes extend the reach of Capitol Corridor, San Joaquin and Pacific Surfliner trains to the hot spots you'll want to visit.

  • See Yosemite the no-hassle way with Amtrak's Thruway Connection to the San Joaquin at Merced.
  • Explore California wine country and plan your own tour with many easy connections from Amtrak cities.
  • Loll in Monterey and Santa Cruz via San Jose.
  • Take in the desert at Barstow or golf in Palm Springs — it's a snap with Thruway/San Joaquin.
  • Like the coast? Visit beach communities all the way from San Diego to Grover Beach.
