Ventura station
Train station in Ventura, California, US
Ventura station (referred to as Ventura–Downtown/Beach station by Metrolink) is a passenger rail station in downtown Ventura, California. The station is served by Amtrak's Pacific Surfliner from San Luis Obispo to San Diego. Ten Pacific Surfliner trains serve the station daily. Of the 73 California stations served by Amtrak, Ventura was the 33rd-busiest in FY2010, boarding or detraining an average of approximately 125 passengers daily.[3] The single platform is located on the south side of the tracks with a view of the Santa Barbara Channel and the Channel Islands. The Ventura Freeway (U.S. Route 101) is parallel with and on the north side of tracks.
Ventura station is served by ten Amtrak Pacific Surfliner trains (five in each direction) evenly spaced throughout the day.[4]
Metrolink’s Ventura County Line terminus is in Montalvo at the Ventura–East station since overnight storage of trains in the downtown area was impractical.[5] Special service trains may come to this station such as service to the Ventura County Fair, in season.[6] In March 2022, Metrolink announced that Ventura County Line trains will terminate at this station sometime in the future.[7]
