We have a scheduled 6 hour layover in Emeryville between getting off the westbound California Zephyr and boarding the northbound Coast Starlight. We'd like to use that layover to go into San Francisco to do some sightseeing and have dinner. Can we buy tickets on the Amtrak Thruway bus #5005 from Emeryville into San Francisco, then on bus #5014 later that evening back to Emeryville? Any idea what the cost would be? Our trains are booked as part of a longer AGR reward trip.
If that isn't possible, what's the best way to get into San Francisco during our layover? Public transportation is preferred.
Am I correct that we can day-check our bags at Emeryville while we go into San Francisco?
(am I the only one who wants to contract "Amtrak Thruway bus" to "Amway bus"?)
