Amtrak's Pomona Station is located near the center of Old Pomona, on Commercial Street near Garey Avenue. The station is used by Metrolink commuter trains, Foothill Transit Buses, and Amtrak's Sunset Limited, which stops in Pomona on Sundays, Tuesdays and Fridays in both directions. The Sunset Limited operates three times a week on a schedule connecting Los Angeles to Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida.
Note: The Sunset Limited's schedules have been revised slightly effective March 8, 2005, west of New Orleans in both directions. Please check with Amtrak (1-800-USA-RAIL) for arrival and departure times in California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. Since Hurricane Katrina, the Sunset has not operated between New Orleans and Florida. No restart date is known at this time (although freight traffic is again being carried over the line). Consult Amtrak (1-800-USA-RAIL) for any changes.
Although Foothill Transit has an office in the Pomona depot, the stop is not staffed by either Metrolink and Amtrak. There is no ticketing, package express or checked baggage for Amtrak passengers at Pomona. Passengers wishing to travel on the Sunset Limited must have reservations, which can be obtained from an Amtrak travel agent, Amtrak's telephone service 1-800-USA-RAIL (1-800-872-7245, or via the Amtrak National web page: http://tickets.amtrak.com.
