For my Coast Starlight blog post, I needed the distance by train between Emeryville and Seattle and for some reason search engines cannot find anything useful (and LLMs just hallucinate).

It’s not on Amtrak’s website either. They used to have them as part of the timetables, but they’re not on the newer ones.

I had to resort to finding what I was looking for in this unofficial archive of Amtrak timetables.

Anyway, I have transcribed the distances in this GitHub repo and the results are visible here.

Billets

J’ai acheté un USA Rail Pass en solde pour $299 (au lieu de $499). Valable pour 10 voyages en Coach (place assise) dans les 30 jours après le premier tronçon (le pass est valable 4 mois après l’achat, mais remboursable si non utilisé).
