Make sure you know which tracks you're going or coming to, as arrivals an departures are on opposite side of the tracks. There's good seating here while you're waiting for the train. Metrolink operates here during the weekends, so you can make a visit and relax by the beach side here without the drive.

Metrolink only has three northbound trains from Oceanside. I used to go up to Orange to visit my…read moresister in the hospital last year and there were many connections both northbound and southbound but now there are only three I think one at 4:30 in the morning one at 5:30 in the morning and one at 1:30 in the afternoon. With gas prices being so high and traffic jams everywhere this is absolutely the worst service. For me as a senior it was $6.75 for a ticket to travel up to Orange now it's impossible Metrolink is the worst service to Orange county. So disappointed I can't take Metrolink anymore I wonder when this will change or if it ever will

We rode the Coaster twice on consecutive days.  The first trip was literally a five-minute jaunt…read morefrom Carlsbad to Oceanside.  The next day we took the Coaster from Carlsbad to the Santa Fe Depot downtown on our way to a Padres game.  That trip took a solid hour. The first trip to O'Side was great.  We bought tickets at the kiosk at the Carlsbad Coaster Station.  The train was on time, we hopped on and five minutes later we were in Oceanside.  The train was not crowded at all and we were able to sit just about anywhere.  Much cheaper and more convenient than a Lyft or Uber.  It was great. On the second trip to the Santa Fe Depot we found ourselves on a very packed train.  We found seating for the four of us on the second floor of the train car.  It was two seats on either side of a little table.  As we travelled down the coast, with each stop more people climbed aboard.  By the time we arrived at our destination it was standing room only. The ride itself was quite pleasant.  The views along the coast are great.  It affords one the opportunity to see some backcountry that can't been seen form the interstate, so that's pretty cool.  It was an hour from Carlsbad to downtown, but it was a quick hour.  There were quite a few stops along the way, but they were brief. After the game we made our way back to Santa Fe Depot.  For the ride home the Coaster was packed with tired, but happy campers celebrating a Padres victory.  Once again the cars were standing room only.  Becky found a seat, the last one, I stood next to her.  Our companions were in a different car altogether. The beauty of starting in Carlsbad is that you have the pick of seats because the train starts in Oceanside.  On the way back, however, it is a free-for-all, so you get what you get.  Even though I was standing it was still a quick hour return trip.  The seating on the cars was perfectly comfortable.  Certainly much better than the trolley.  The cars also have small bathrooms should the need arise.   We were visiting our friends who in live in Carlsbad and they use the Coaster quite a bit.  In fact our friend commutes to work on the Coaster on the days she has to go to the office. We found it to be a comfortable, fun and affordable way to travel. The NCTD could improve on signage.  We had the luxury of travelling with seasoned Coaster riders.  I could see how a novice could easily be overwhelmed and confused.  That would really be my only critique.

Although, I had ridden it 2 days previously, and the Wi-Fi was out then also, on my next ride, I asked the conductor and he acted as if he wasn't aware of that and would report it. Also, at least 1/2 the bathrooms were out of order. That's a problem. I hope that's not a sign of deterioration.

My family and I have taken the Coaster several times to enjoy a nice relaxed ride…read moreto watch a Padres game. This Sunday when we returned to Oceanside upon Entering our vehicle I received a notification that my wallet was left behind. I immediately ran back to the Coaster and could see my wallet on the seat where it had fallen out of my pocket. However all the doors were closed, I noticed an employee walking towards the front of the train and ran towards him while repeatedly calling for him only to be ignored. I reached him as he was climbing up to where the driver was also sitting and asked him if he could please open the door so I could quickly hop on and grab it. He said NO we're going home You'll have to contact lost and found. That's policy he said.. Long story short, my wallet had an AirTag in it so I tracked it all night where it sat in the train yard, and went to bed at 11 PM. Woke up the next morning and my wallet was an hour and a half away near Hemet. Call the Hemet sheriff department and they went to the location and talked to the resident who said he was a manager for the train and he accidentally picked up my wallet and put it in his pocket. I wonder if that is policy needless to say it was empty and two days later all my cards & ID were returned to me by a sergeant from Camp Pendleton, who found them scattered along the road, leaving the train yard. So be careful not to leave anything behind on the train, especially your wallet because they're employees and management are thieves and very dishonest.

For the past 2 months I had to take the coaster beginning at Oceanside to the Santa Fe Depot. And…read moreI have no complaints at all in regard to the coaster and the staff onboard. The coasters are always clean. There's never been a foul odor. Even the people traveling on it are polite. The staff onboard the coasters are always courteous and answer and all questions I might have. I've always been greeted with a smile and a hello. You can purchase a pass at the transit center OR download the Pronto app and purchase them that way. The train is equipped with an upper and lower deck. Some seating have a table so you can do work or eat on. Do they run on time? Not 100% of the time. But a lot of that has to do with the fact that sometimes they need to wait for another train to pass by, weather conditions and some other factors that are out of their control. But you get to where you need to and safely. I highly recommend the coaster. Especially if you hate the 5 traffic! *Oceanside Transit Center: The public bathroom is atrocious!!!*

This is the Oceanside Transportation Center, which is a cute little bus station and train station at 215 South Tremont. You can actually go to Tijuana from here, which is awesome, as well as a lot of other places. It has very limited hours do the corona, but you can see it for miles away because of what looks like a Chinatown Gate towering above it, which is actually fancy cute, and the station has a truly strange design, very unusual and unique, and always tells me I'm here in Oceanside without me even having to remember that I am.

You can only change the date or time of the ticket for another $20 fee of course. If you try to call and talk to a manager they refuse to talk to you. A waste of money!!!!

And now, long day at the hospital. Here at the bus stop. Been waiting since 4:00pm. Time right now is 5:20 pm. It said they are running late. What is their definition of running a little late?! I thought the bus will cut down the cost of traveling back and forth to and from the hospital. But at this point I'd rather call the uber today cuz this is really getting ridiculous!! Worse public transportation I ever experienced!!!!!!

(I suppose trains like this stay this clean and pristine because San Diego hasn't got Chicago's awful weather). I took the Coaster to Old Town to meet a friend for dinner before I went to the airport on my way out of town. Service operates primarily during weekday peak periods, but there is also limited weekday midday, Friday evening, and Saturday service. Special evening service is provided when the San Diego Padres play Monday-Thursday evening home games. The only thing that bugged me is there was no one to collect the ticket I bought at the station before boarding. This was 100% honor system, and I suspect it's widely abused to the disadvantage of the transit authority, but maybe they save more money than they lose this way by not employing conductors.
