The event was very nice and well organized. The trains are nice with plenty of room, but the ride from Antioch will only last about 10 minuets. Once eBart reaches the Pittsburg Bart station one will have to switch over to a regular Bart cart.

  Daniel,
  Thank you for reading and for your comments.
  
  Just one correction to your comment. In order for riders to commute to or beyond the Pittsburg/Bay Point BART Station, they will have to transfer at the Transfer Station located between the Pittsburg/Bay Point BART Station and the new Pittsburg Station at Railroad Avenue, and get into the BART train there.
