I have a long time ago. It’s just a normal commuter train. Not that special. The Pacific Surfliner runs the same route and the equipment is better and you get AGR points for it. The scenery is great.

Now the sprinter connects with both at Oceanside.

You can also connect with Metrolink (also a commuter train) at Oceanside to get to LA.
 
I've ridden Coaster a few times. It's comfortable, clean, fast (meaning it doesn't just go 50mph). I believe there is free WiFi. Trains have a good OTP.

If you are thinking about taking it over Amtrak, you get the same views, less amenities. But it's much cheaper than Amtrak.
