BART Blue Line

How come the train windows are so dirty? Don’t they ever clean them? I can hardly see out.

Having bart, and any other type of public transportation is a blessing, BUT I think we live in a country that we should have the best of every thing, our transportation compare to European country is nothing, so very loud, old, dirty seats, and … etc.

Why drive when you can Bart? Bart is a quick and easy way to get to the city from the east bay. Why bother paying for parking in the city when you can leave your car at home and ride Bart. Now with smart phone apps you can easily figure out your bus connection to get to where you are headed in the city. Don’t forget to grab a transfer ticket when you exit the station. It will save you some money. The trains are fairly clean transferring stations is easy. Don’t be afraid to ask for help from fellow riders if you are not sure where to transfer or which platform you need to wait at.

Paying parking validation with clipper card is not possible. You must have cash. What’s the point if having a «single» card then? It sucks.

I took Bart to the Justin Bieber concert in Oakland and it was a wonderful experience! I AM A BELIEBER 4 LIFE!!!

Typical stuff, fewer lunatics than the Fremont and Richmond lines. The first three stops staring from Dublin/​Pleasanton are relatively new so they’re all cleaner and safer than the older stations. Lots of parking in all of the first three too.
There are a ton of white collar workers who start off in this area (some come from Livermore, San Ramon, etc.) so the train is PACKED in the mornings. You’ll be lucky if you get a seat by the time it gets to the West Dublin station. It’s pretty funny watching people pile in once it gets past Bayfair because no one wants to make room for the new entrants.
On the way home from SF, I’ve noticed people here are in more of a rush to get back to their cars compared to the other East Bay lines. Waiting isn’t as pleasant in the first three stops either because they’re all over the freeway so it’s windier and louder than normal too.

Typically runs on time. Doesn’t smell good or bad. Interesting folk. Reminds me cities.

No complaints, thanks for getting me to SF in an hour!

Mah bad — extra star for the awesome parking garage!

I’ve driven through the Cities of Dublin and Pleasanton on the 580, but I’ve never stopped in either. OK, that might be a lie, as I may have done a focus-​group type thing in Dublin at one point, but that doesn’t count. Anyway, I consider myself lucky never to have experienced the wonder that is either of these ridiculous Bay Area suburbs. How do I know they’re ridiculous without ever having been to either? Well, that’s quite a conundrum, because I’m unlikely to ever visit either and, therefore, unlikely to ever change my mind. If it’s any consolation to your offended Dublin/​Pleasanton pride, your chain stores look, um, nice from the freeway. OK, they look like every other visible-​from-​the-​freeway chain stores I’ve ever seen. And this makes them, exciting. I think?
Why am I going on about Dublin/​Pleasanton in a review of the Dublin/​Pleasanton-​Daly City Line? Well, because I can. And unless the BART station does somehow straddle the border between the two cities, it’s stupid that it’s got a slashed name to begin with. It’s probably either in Dublin or Pleasanton.
The line itself is OK. I’ve never ridden it farther than Bay Fair, so I can’t really contrast it with the Fremont-​Daly City Line. It’s gotten me (most of the way) to Oakland International Airport and back on many occasions. Hm, what else to say? I think I’m excited about the new West Dublin station, although it will also ridiculously be called the West Dublin/​Pleasanton Station. Seriously, can’t we just give each city its own BART station and be done with this /​garbage?
