Taken March 20, 2022 Location: Gaviota, CA. “Put the Coast in Starlight”: Amtrak 14(20) skirts along bluffs above the Pacific Ocean. Seen in the background are the Gaviota pier, the Gaviota trestle, and the semi-green rolling hills of the Coast Range. Running along the ocean and the coastal areas, in general, gives the train its name: the Coast Starlight.
