[QUOTE]Originally posted by yukon11: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by DonNadeau: [qb] "I wonder if they could organize sort of an "Amtrak Uber' . . .." Wonderful. Once at Williams Junction, the Amtrak stop for Williams in a forest, without even a shelter or platform (at least where I stepped off), the Thruway driver actually dropped us off at each of our hotels in Williams. Very kind. I tipped well. Vincent, how many wineries does your Santa Rosa Thruways stop at on the way? :-) Two and one half hours unbelievable. [/qb][/QUOTE]********************** Don - The Amtrak bus to Martinez takes about 2 hours, not 2.5 hrs, but still a lot of time on the bus. It has 7 stops, including Petaluma, Napa, Vallejo, and Benicia on the way. The Martinez Amtrak bus does make a couple of stops in Napa, including the Napa Wine Train station. I don't believe it stops at any specific wineries, but, perhaps, close to some. For wine tours, this link may or may not be of interest: http://www.viator.com/San-Francisco-tours/Wine-Tasting-and-Winery-Tours/d651-g6-c21?pref=02 This fall, the SMART train (Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit) will begin travel. Initially, it will go from San Rafael to Windsor (just above Santa Rosa). Eventually, it will run from Larkspur (just north of San Francisco) to Cloverdale, in north Sonoma County. It will provide a good jumping off place to rent a car and travel the wine country. Richard [/QB][/QUOTE]
