Check delays here

In addition there are service alerts out for the coast starlight train 14 found here

I do not know if this affects your ability to book the itinerary you want

ABOVE ALL BE NICE
When I look up train 3 for the past 4 weeks, the average on time performance is 22 minutes EARLY. It appears that only 3 days in the last month did it not arrive early and only one of those days was late enough to miss the Coast Starlight.

And, California Zephyr doesn't go to LA.
