Throughout the pandemic and the various travel restrictions that have come along with it, the Capitol Corridor has continued to run as an essential service throughout Northern California. Much of what has been published about our service since COVID-19 came into our lives is that ridership is down, hovering at just 11-15% of normal ridership. You may wonder, who are the people that make up that small percentage of riders who continue to travel with us? And what is it like riding the Capitol Corridor during a pandemic?

This may have meant more time reading, binge-watching series, gaming, or even picking up a new hobby. For the Capitol Corridor staff the experience was no different, and we wanted to share how our team members made the best of 2020! More Capitol Corridor Best of 2020
