I'll be taking the Coast Starlight tomorrow from Los Angeles to San Jose.

The train is supposed to arrive at 8:11pm at San Jose, but I have heard that the train is frequently (very?) late.

Is there any place where I could find "how late" the train usually is ? For example to know whether I'll be able to catch public transportation to Palo Alto or not...

This will at least give you the on-time percentage: on-time percentage. However, I don't know of anything that will give you exact numbers, but in my experience it usually ends up being 90-120 minutes if it's delayed, but it can vary widely.

  • It is also possible to use the "status" tab of the amtrak website to find the delay of the currently riding train to have an idea of how late it can be.

  • Good idea. For example, yesterday's train was 2h26m late and today's seems to be ~1h late.
