Amtrak is another shining example of the California government failing the people.

We just keep letting the government run all this crap and they are terrible. When are we ever going to learn? The swamp isn't only in Washington it's in Sacramento.

I'll probably be getting on and off Amtrak at this station if I attended UC Berkeley or Berkeley City College. You are better getting something to eat and drink from a nearby restaurant, coffee shop or other eateries and use the restrooms there prior to coming to the train station. This is definitely the station to get on/off at if you or anyone you know is going to work in Berkeley, attending Berkeley City College or University of California, Berkeley!

I'm more of an AC passenger if I have to rely on public transportation. Today I was meeting up with a high school classmate of mine for lunch in Berkeley. Ashby BART, 1:00 PM, corner of Martin Luther King Jr Way and Ashby. This station is okay...eerily quiet. I don't know what it is, but I had the "heebie, jeebie" in this station. It seems as though very few people use this station to ride BART to their destination. I usually can find the exit, but I got somewhat twisted in trying to get to the upper level to exit this station. Once I exited to the parking lot, I wasn't sure which direction to head to the meeting corner. I'm glad that my classmate called me to see where I was. Then there was a stranger (and a gentleman at that) who happened to be walking in the parking lot. He was headed in the same direction of my destination. I asked if I could walk along with him. He said okay. I thanked him for helping me out. When my classmate dropped me off, she told me to be careful and vigilant of my surroundings. The return trip on BART to Downtown Oakland from this station was somewhat weird. I had some guy standing about three feet to the left of me talking to himself - about breaking a leg. I did not feel comfortable because there was hardly anybody on the platform but two other people. I believe the next time I meet her for lunch in Berkeley, she can pick me up from the North Berkeley Station, which is a better and cleaner station.

The conductors are always pleasant, there are tables, power outlets, and wi-fi, and, oh did I mention the cafe car where I can grab a snack, coffee, or beer! Being from a small town in AZ with no public transportation, this train made all the difference in deciding to come to Berkeley. To be fair, it can occasionally be late, or too warm in the car, but the price for monthly unlimited rides is a bargain! I just wish the bring a friend for $5 on the weekend deal applied to multi-ride tickets...it seems like it was designed with commuters in mind and ruined by corporate big-wigs! None the less, I love this train!

First off, the company behind it, Brainstormer, seems to ask the most weird and obscure questions of all the quiz chains -- think museums in Madrid, or Slovenian bikers -- as if they want you to fail. Scores were pretty low across the board. It was a constant struggle to hear anything the host was saying, largely because he insisted on wearing a mask. He also had a somewhat curt, unfriendly demeanor. Brainstormer was probably the best a decade ago, but something seems to have gone wrong with them along the way.
