Trains at Oxnard Station

With our train already 30 minutes late, mistaking this for the Amtrak was a reasonable mistake. However, I realized something was wrong when it did not slow and stop for passengers to board. Then I noticed there were freight cars, not passenger cars.

Our train finally arrived 50 minutes late.

All bedrooms, most seating, and the dining facilities were all on the upper deck.
