Inside the three-walled shelter that acted as the Santa Fe station on the beach in San Clemente, California, is the old timetable for the eight daily "San Diegans" running between Los Angeles and San Diego. Two years after the formation of Amtrak, the timetable still lists the old Santa Fe train numbers. San Clemente was served by eight trains in 1971, and in 2012 that number had dropped to just four Amtrak trains on weekdays! However, due to its proximity to the beach, on weekends there are 4 Amtrak and 12 Metrolink trains stopping here! |
