I think everything coming into Cal goes through Barstow and then goes toward LA/SD or north up the valley into Sacramento or the Bay area. Another line takes passenger trains up and down the coast SD to Portland.

I took the train from San Diego to San Francisco in 1961. The next leg of the trip was via ship to Honolulu. I had my 5th birthday on the ship.
