Transferring from BART to Amtrak in Richmond....

Tell me about the BART to Amtrak transfer at the Richmond station.

I need to go from SFO on BART and pick up one of the Capitols heading eastbound. I understand that the Oakland and Richmond stations are the only stations that are co-located with Amtrak. Going to Oakland seems way out of the way.

Is the transfer from BART to Amtrak (or vice versa, coming back) easy? Obvious as to how?

As a Bay Area refugee, I am very familiar with riding BART, but have never done the BART ---> Amtrak transfer. Any tips/thoughts welcome
