  • Experience BART's journey between East and Central Alameda County aboard an 8-car San Francisco/Daly City train, as it heads to San Leandro from the Bay Area's Tri-Valley region on a weekday afternoon.
    Bay Fair is the first northbound transfer point in the East Bay for passengers looking to switch between Richmond and San Francisco/Daly City destinations. Dublin/Pleasanton Station is the transit agency's easternmost point in Alameda County, and is located about 35 minutes from Interstate 5 - a commonly-used connector to Southern California.
    Travelers looking to connect to all destinations and other BART lines must board a San Francisco/Daly City train, and listen for transfer announcements down the line.
    ** COUPLE NOTABLES **
    West Dublin/Pleasanton, BART's 44th station and newest one, as of 2011, is included on this trip. Also, the 10-12 minute stretch between Castro Valley Station and West Dublin/Pleasanton is the longest between any two stations in the BART system.

      Few years from now these cars will be gone.

    I'm from the UK, and I have always been fascinated by the Bay area, it looks to me like one of the best parts of the USA to live in with the diverse culture it seems more like here/Europe than my impression of many other parts of the USA would lead me to believe. I can't wait to visit the place but although I never normally have any problems with understanding any North American accents (bar perhaps the more southern states like N/S.Carolina - Arizona), the conductor on this train caught me out a couple of times, I found me listening really hard!

      actually the only pilot on board is locked into a small triangle shaped tracking bay in front of the train. Normally the system is very much automated but they are there to ensure orderly transit along the tracks and stoppage at the right spots at the station. If you get in a fight on board a two way speaker system could be used to alert the operator however they would need to alert their operations office and have a police officer board when appropriate to handle the situation.

    It would be so nice to have the extension to Livermore be built from the existing Dublin/Pleasanton Station, kept continuing along 580. Or even better to Tracy!!

      I agree GPS I am from San Francisco and initial 1960s plans from Marin to San Jose were scrapped because local county councils felt it was the transit plan from hell that would do nothing for the general area at large except to promote San Francisco's superiority.

      martin theiss San Jose extension is almost ready. At least the 10 mile phase from Fremont to Milpitas and Berryesa.

    The A and B cars sound like a cross between the R142A subway cars in NYC and toothed gears like the ones found on street cars back in the early 20th Century.

    They sound like the M4 subway cars in Philadelphia a little.
