> Amtrak is planning to detour its southbound Coast Starlight between
> Oakland and Los Angeles in March and April due to track work. Instead
> of its normal route along the California Coast, train No. 11 will
> travel Union Pacific's ex-Southern Pacific route via the San Joaquin
> Valley and Tehachapi Loop. The detours are planned for March 13-15,
> March 24-30, and April 8-10.
>
> Seattle departures of the train are one day earlier. Amtrak says
> that the track work may end early, so detours may not last all the
> way into April.
