Yesterday, the Capitol Corridor Joint Powers Authority (CCJPA) began operating six additional trains between San Jose and Sacramento, Calif. Coupled with a recent 30 percent increase in service between Oakland and Sacramento, the San Jose train additions mark the authority’s largest-ever service expansion, according to a prepared statement.
A total of 14 trains now operate to and from San Jose daily. CCJPA used $72 million in state transportation funds to upgrade track and add infrastructure.
CCJPA operates Amtrak intercity passenger-rail service along a 170-mile corridor between the Sierra Foothills, Sacramento, San Francisco and San Jose. The California Department of Transportation began operating the service in 1991 and transferred management to CCJPA in 1998.
