Amtrak California cab coach #8307 trails a Capitols consist at Sacramento, Calif. preparing to depart for San Jose. This has become one of the most successful rail corridors in the U.S. outside the Northeast, with multiple round trips daily.

A fleet of bilevel rolling stock equips the Capitols; these sets also operate on the San Joaquins that serve the state's Central Valley to and from both Oakland and Sacramento. The San Joaquins also use a set of single-level cars pending the arrival of new Nippon Sharyo bilevels.
