Ten years ago, I tried Caltrain once. I was driving in the region by 35 years old. Then I was…read moretrying Caltrain again this year 3 times. I found that Palo Alto was sunny and warmer than Berkeley CA. Berkeley started to feel less comfortable and Palo Alto shopping center was a nicer oasis. The two Caltrain stations at Palo Alto and Menlo Park are very interesting to visit. The Menlo Park station features an old Victorian building that is painted fresh but not in use. Nearby is Philz and El Camino Real. Walking distance to Caltrain. It's 2025 now. The next stops are Redwood and San Carlos. Worth visiting and trying Caltrain after all this time. The modern design is interesting. The weather is so nice that it's outdoor and nice in the evening by Friday night and the weekend. The train is still newer than Bart trains. More attendants and bathrooms and seating as well as chargers and outlets. It's different...same region. For the 2 college campuses that you could visit if you find that positive.

This is a clean station located in the beautiful city of Menlo Park. The train is *generally*…read moreon-time and its really a pleasant stop to wait at before your train arrives. Unlike other stations, Menlo Park CalTrain is quite safe and not suffering from a homeless encampment problem. You can choose to purchase you ticket at the station itself (before the train arrives!) or opt to purchase it via their mobile app (which I suggest, as its more convenient and allows you to get there a little later). It's great a small suburban neighborhood has a CalTrain that gives it such easy access to other parts of the Bay Area.

MUNI listened! 28R now stops at 19th Avenue & Eucalyptus…read more Today, Friday, September 4, 2026, I noticed something that made me very happy: the 28R now has a stop at 19th Avenue & Eucalyptus Street. Every Friday, I go to the YMCA Stonestown at 19th Avenue & Eucalyptus Street, but in the past, the 28R did not stop at Eucalyptus. Whenever I took the 28R, I had to get off at 19th Avenue & Winston Drive and walk about 8 minutes to the YMCA. It was inconvenient, especially when I could take the regular 28 and get off directly at 19th Avenue & Eucalyptus. I started submitting feedback and complaints to MUNI explaining why I believed the 28R should stop at 19th Avenue & Eucalyptus. Nearby destinations include: * M Ocean View Metro -- an important connection to Civic Center, Powell, Montgomery, and Embarcadero stations * 57 Muni bus -- transfer point to Daly City BART * YMCA Stonestown * Lakeside Presbyterian Church * St. Stephen Church * St. Stephen School * Regal Stonestown Galleria * Whole Foods Market * DSW * Stonestown Medical Building * Petco * Restaurants and businesses at Stonestown Galleria * Medical, dental, and specialty care offices * Parkmerced residential community In my MUNI feedback, I explained: When evaluating stop spacing, I encourage SFMTA to consider the experience of riders who rely on public transit daily. What may appear to be a reasonable walking distance on paper can be much more challenging in practice for seniors, students, working commuters, riders carrying groceries, people traveling to medical appointments, parents with children, and individuals with mobility limitations. I also explained that Eucalyptus Street is an important transit connection and community destination, including connections to the M Ocean View Metro and the 57 Muni bus to Daly City BART. Adding a 28R stop at Eucalyptus would make transportation much more convenient and accessible. And today, it happened! The 28R stopped at 19th Avenue & Eucalyptus. After my movie at Regal, I would normally have to walk to 19th Avenue & Winston Drive to catch the 28 or 28R. Now I can simply walk to 19th Avenue & Eucalyptus, which is a much shorter and easier walk to catch the bus. Congratulations and THANK YOU, MUNI, for listening to my feedback! This is a great reminder that if MUNI riders have a suggestion, concern, or complaint, speak up! Call 311 or submit feedback to MUNI/SFMTA. You never know when your feedback might help bring about a change that benefits many other riders too. Sometimes, complaining really does work!

I absolutely enjoy the peacefulness of MUNI Route 28L 19TH AVENUE LIMITED. This route is not as…read morecrowded as the 28 19TH AVENUE LOCAL. There is no service on the 28L between 9 AM - 2 PM from Monday - Friday! Too bad this route does not have weekend service either! Quick Tip: - Inbound Terminal: Fort Mason - Outbound Terminal: Daly City BART The 28L making fewer stops providing faster service is one of the best routes. Also just for a quick note, I wouldn't recommend using www.nextmuni.com or looking at the screen of the GPS bus tracking system at select bus stops as they aren't always 100% accurate. You're way better off peaking out to see if there is a bus arriving at your stop or not! One of the good things I do like about taking the 28L is that there is a seat when I get on the bus. When there is a 28 coming to my stop and I notice that the 28 is too crowded or I see a 28L right behind, I'll get on the 28L instead! This is certainly one feature that gets the 28L this 5-star rating! *94128 is a zip code at San Francisco International Airport.* Zip code at Daly City BART Station is 94014

This station does not have a ticket station, or bathrooms. There's seating and trash containers. The area is not the cleanest and I have seen homeless individuals near the station. The train I boarded was crowded. Where was everyone going on a late Friday morning. Maybe spring break... The trains are always dirty so I take my Clorox wipes and Lysol to wipe and spray down my seats. There's a handful of seats on bottom train compartment and ample seating upstairs. There's racks for your bike and luggage. Restrooms provided throughout the train as well as, the cafe for snacks. Overall, a pleasant ride despite the loud noise coming from the kids laptop across from me.

But the security staff.....talk about unprofessional and rude, spent 40.00 at the Shibe Park Tavern..1 beer and 1 cocktail, The Mavs & Thunder were playing on the TV's at the bar........just watching the game....and the security staff threatened us that we better leave now, not even allowed to finish our drinks or even finish a freakin peanut! The security staff was doing their job???? But rude, we are paying customers. At the end of the day, I blame the trash ownership and the A's - no wonder they are leaving, I wouldn't ever come back here to see a concert, even if Michael Jackson came back from the grave! Great Job Oakland.

This station is much closer to the Financial District, but still also close to Powell and Market,…read morebut with a relatively short distance walk (about 10-12 minutes). The station seems much cleaner all around just because it's off the more touristy stations. It also seems to have less broken escalators when you need them. Not sure if there's a bathroom at this station though. A good station also if you're trying to link up to surface buses.

Amazing news the elevators were actually working at this station. They had an agent in the Elevator…read morewaiting for the next guest to arrive. I've never come across this level of hospitality before. Usually you have to contact a gate agent to assist in using the elevator and that is if it's working at that station. They seem to go in and out all the time and at some stations they never seem to be in operation. This is a good station to walk to if you are coming from or going to a Giants game. It's actually a closer walk then if you walk to the Embarcadero station and that is where most guests walk to when going to or coming from a GIants game. It's about a 15-20 minute walk from the Montgomery BART station to the Ball park. The BART station's first stop if you are heading from Oracle Park to the Pittsburg BayPoint line is the Montgomery station so when we arrive we were able to get seats. Next we stopped at the Embarcadero Station and it was flooded with people and there were very few seats for them, most people had to stand in our train. The initial wait for the train was 15 minutes from the time we entered the station from the Giants game till we hopped on the train. The Daly City line came several times over while we were waiting. Bathrooms. I can't speak to their bathroom situation as we used them at the Ballpark before we left so we didn't need to use them. BART no longer uses the old school BART tickets, they have revolved into using the Clipper Cards or a Credit Card. I have a plastic clipper card somewhere, but I'm not exactly sure where it is and failed to bring it. The good thing about using a Clipper Card is you aren't holding out your credit card to come and go using BART. I was afraid I would drop it in the crowd. They also have a Clipper App you can use, but I'm not a big fan of paying for things with apps. In the end I took my chances and used my credit card as a key to get in and out of the BART station. I'll probably use my Credit Card next time I use BART too just for the convince. In addition I don't like putting money on cards as I always end up with an odd amount left over that I can never use and it ends up to be lost money.

Embarcadero BART station has always been my favorite BART station…read more That's as true today as it was when I was 14 years old and I used to cut school in Berkeley and jump on BART station and get off in Embarcadero so I could spend the day in San Francisco. Embarcadero station is the first station one gets to when they are coming from the East Bay and it's located in one of the most exciting parts of San Francisco. This station gives you access to Ferry Building-Oracle Park-Pier 39-Fisherman's Wharf. The downside to this station,to me, are as follows. -Monday through Friday from 3pm to 6pm this station is super packed with workers trying to leave San Francisco after work and can make catching a train back to the East Bay troublesome. -Same thing with the morning from like 6am to 9am coming from the East Bay is a monster of a train ride -- I don't love it. After Giant games or events at Oracle Park this station is very busy as well with people trying to catch BART back to the East Bay. I feel this station is pretty safe, I've never seen a lot of criminal activity going on in the station. This BART station also is a central hub for connecting to San Francisco's Muni Metro system, so that is another plus for this station. Overall I can say these are the reasons this is still my favorite BART station in the Bay Area.

I'm sure they are that hundreds of times a day. Overall, this is an excellent system and we love the convenience and ease of use.

Fear not, around the corner will be a J Church usually running 2 minutes later. Things looking really bad? Walk another block to the underground Market St station & there's at least 3 additional lines. Anyway, Duboce & Church is the last stop before it goes through the tunnel eastbound. Especially westbound when you can completely space out & still know when you get to Church Street cause you see the light at the end of the tunnel. (sic) The trains are pretty new & clean, including the seats. Love the new design which finally acknowledges nobody wants to sit next to you, So now there's a row of single seats, & long seat benches on the sides. Bonus- you get 1 or 2 additional cars attached so you can jockey for position at the least crowded section. It's fast & furious.
