Hi soma1k - can you please verify which Amtrak train serves Cloverdale?

I know that the Coast Starlight does not (it goes up the Sacramento Valley as it makes its way from the SF Bay Area into Oregon).

From checking the Amtrak website, it says that to get to Cloverdale, one would need to take the following (I used a random weekday date):

From San Francisco Ferry Bldg on 03/05/04 to Emeryville on 03/05/04
From Emeryville on 03/05/04 to Martinez on 03/05/04
From Martinez on 03/05/04 to Cloverdale on 03/05/04


6622 BUS
San Francisco Ferry Bldg Emeryville 03/05/04
7:10am 03/05/04
7:45am Unreserved Thruway

522 TRAIN
Emeryville Martinez 03/05/04
7:55am 03/05/04
8:35am Unreserved Coach

6311 BUS
Martinez Cloverdale 03/05/04
10:15am 03/05/04
12:15pm

The Amtrak site lists a fare of $16.15, but that elapsed time of 5 hours and 5 minutes gives one pause.

I hope I'm wrong

Is it possible that another agency runs rail service from Martinez up to Cloverdale?
