Coast Starlight ® Route Guide ® Y E COAST STARLIGHT® ROUTE GUIDE JOURN E TH SEATTLE • PORTLAND • SACRAMENTO • OAKLAND/SAN FRANCISCO • LOS ANGELES We hope this guide helps you enjoy the journey by learning about points of interest along the Coast Starlight’s route. This guide starts at the northern terminus of the train in Seattle and proceeds southward, ending in Los Angeles. If you are traveling ENJOY northbound, just read the guide in reverse, remembering to look in the opposite direction referenced. American pop culture refers to the Pacific Coast as “the left coast.” Seen from the right train, the Coast Starlight, we experience 1,377 miles of sheer magnificence, both left and right, from Seattle, Washington, to Los Angeles, California. Along the route, we traverse steep mountain ranges, explore rolling, gentle valleys and skirt along the dynamically beautiful sandy shores of the Pacific Ocean. The scenery is breathtaking, the cities are unique, and the history is fascinating. AMTRAK® STATIONS are shown in all capital letters, as opposed to upper and lower case for towns and geographical areas through which the train travels but does not stop. The Amtrak® System Timetable or the Coast Starlight timetable folder should be consulted for actual station times. Mileage from Seattle is shown for each Amtrak Station, and approximate mileages for certain points of interest en route are also shown, to serve as a guide for following the progress of your trip. While all service presented in this guide was accurate at the time of publication, routes and services are subject to change. Please contact Amtrak at 1-800-USA-RAIL, visit Amtrak.com or call your travel agent for the most current information. (The Coast Starlight name honors two of its pre-Amtrak “ancestors,” the former Southern Pacific Coast Daylight, the premier daytime train, and the Starlight, an overnight all-coach train, between San Francisco and Los Angeles. Before Amtrak began running the nation’s long distance passenger trains in 1971, one had to travel on trains operated by two railroads between Los Angeles and Seattle. Southern Pacific operated numerous trains between Los Angeles and Portland, but a change of trains at San Francisco/Oakland was necessary. Between Portland and Seattle, one chose the trains of the Union Pacific, Great Northern or Northern Pacific. With Amtrak’s creation and startup on May 1, 1971, through train service between Los Angeles and Seattle was initiated.] So sit back and relax to enjoy one of the most entertaining and enjoyable of railroad routes in the world on the Coast Starlight.

  • About the Pioneer Zephyr
    About the Pioneer Zephyr The Pioneer Zephyr is America’s first diesel-electric, streamlined, stainless-steel passenger train. It is located in the Museum’s Entry Hall and was renovated and conserved in 2020. History In an attempt to increase rail passenger traffic, the Burlington Zephyr was built for the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad Company (CB&Q) in 1934 by the Budd Company of Philadelphia. The Burlington Zephyr offered high-speed transportation in an elegant, streamlined, stainless steel design. It was the first diesel-electric passenger train to enter regular service. The train was renamed the “Pioneer Zephyr” in 1936 because it was the first of several diesel-powered Zephyrs built for the CB&Q. On May 26,1934, the Pioneer Zephyr left Denver and arrived in Chicago 13 hours and five minutes later to reopen the A Century of Progress World’s Fair in 1934. That single nonstop trip of 1,015 miles at record-breaking average speed of 77.6 mph changed the course of railroading and land transportation. Never before had a train traveled more than 775 miles without stopping for fuel and water. The Pioneer Zephyr, nicknamed the “Silver Streak,” was donated to the Museum of Science and Industry in 1960 and was displayed outside next to the 999 Empire State Express locomotive near the Columbia Basin. In 1997, the Museum hired Northern Rail Car of Milwaukee to restore the Pioneer Zephyr to it 1930s-era glory. The gleaming, refurbished train was then moved to a new, underground gallery at the Museum in 1998. The exhibit closed in October 2019, to make way for a completely new exhibition, opening in March 2021.

  • Sea-Level Rise for the Coasts of California, Oregon, and Washington: Past, Present, and Future
    Sea-Level Rise for the Coasts of California, Oregon, and Washington: Past, Present, and Future As more and more states are incorporating projections of sea-level rise into coastal planning efforts, the states of California, Oregon, and Washington asked the National Research Council to project sea-level rise along their coasts for the years 2030, 2050, and 2100, taking into account the many factors that affect sea-level rise on a local scale. The projections show a sharp distinction at Cape Mendocino in northern California. South of that point, sea-level rise is expected to be very close to global projections; north of that point, sea-level rise is projected to be less than global projections because seismic strain is pushing the land upward. ny significant sea-level In compliance with a rise will pose enor- 2008 executive order, mous risks to the California state agencies have A been incorporating projec- valuable infrastructure, devel- opment, and wetlands that line tions of sea-level rise into much of the 1,600 mile shore- their coastal planning.
