“The last time I checked, rail transport from Los Angeles to San Francisco involved some transfer to and traveling on a bus”
Yep, my Mother took the train from Fullerton to the Bay area a number of times. I’m thinking the last time was 20102 or there about. There was a train to train transfer and a bus transfer for part of the journey. Looking at current train tickets for this route, the train to train transfer is in Bakersfield and from Emeryville to S.F. it is bus.

I think the bus-train-train-bus-train route is the fastest one.
There is an Amtrak going the whole way, but is is so slow, that the transfers actually speed the travel up!
For some reason, it is the slowest of Amtrak scheduled trains, goin like 15 mi/h.
If they would be able to speed up the train, this may work.
But I would say, the train speed is probably caused by track issues, which would be beyond control of anybody.
