TBlack Member # 181	posted A friend of mine is flying in to Burbank airport and needs to get to San Diego. Can you do that on the surfliner?
zephyr Member # 1651	posted Yes. The Amtrak station is an easy stroll from the Burbank terminal. From there, you can catch a Surfliner to Sandy Eggo. When I've done something really bad and have to go to SoCal, Burbank is my preferred airport because of its easy Amtrak connection.
TBlack Member # 181	posted Thanks, Zephyr. Is there an on-line schedule available?

TBlack Member # 181	posted Talk about having to be spoon-fed. I am a college graduate, altho you might not know it. I've got it now, and the location of the station in SD. Thanks.
RussM Member # 3627	posted The interval between Amtrak trains at Burbank Airport ranges from 2 to 4 hours. If faced with a long wait, an alternative (on weekdays) is to take a Metrolink train to Union Station. Southbound Surfliner service is more frequent from LA, as many of the trains originate there.
TBlack Member # 181	posted Russ, Thanks for that. Do we know how frequently the Metrolink runs? TB
