Information About

Thruway Motorcoach




Thruway Motorcoach is Amtrak's system of Bus es and contracts with local bus and Taxi services to connect Train Station s to areas not served by Railroad s. Sometimes these services replace trains ( Bustitution ) rather than providing access to areas not served by rail. Passengers may only travel on Amtrak's network of thruway motorcoaches when connecting to or from an Amtrak train. Understandably, thruway motorcoaches are closely timed and coordinated to provide seamless connections to and from the trains, and Amtrak usually guarantees all ticketed train to thruway motorcoach or thruway motorcoach to train connection. California has the most extensive network of thruway motorcoaches in the nation.
