Overcrowding on June 26, 2007
**********************************************************************
To our valued riders on ACE Train #05 June 26, 2007, we apologize for
the crowded conditions on our ACE Train #05 this morning. Plans were
in place to operate a 6 car train set to accommodate our school
groups, but mistakenly, a 5 car train set was dispatched.
We are sorry for the inconvenience you may have experienced.
**********************************************************************
ACE Security Reminders/Updates:
**********************************************************************
ACE continually works with the Office of Homeland Security to obtain
funding for security projects and Staff training. In addition, ACE
Staff Steve Walker recently attended a Passenger Rail Security
Conference hosted by BNSF in Texas. The goal of the Ft. Worth
conference was to bring as many passenger and freight rail partners
together to discuss safety and security issues and come up with
solutions that would benefit the rail industry as a whole. Some of
the ideas generated will be implemented at ACE in the near future and
include working with our law enforcement partners to Safety and
Security drills. Two drills will be held this year in September and
November testing system security and emergency response. More details
to follow.
I want to thank all of those who contacted me regarding parking
citations that were received at Great America the week of June 11th.
I’ve forwarded all of the citation information to Santa Clara Police.
They’ve informed me that passengers will be notified when the
citations are reversed. Santa Clara Police has also informed me full
parking enforcement will begin on July 1 at Great America. Please do
not park in the marked areas between 11:00 PM and 6:00 AM daily.
As a reminder, please do not leave vehicles in ACE parking lots for
more that 48 hours. If you need to park more than 48 hours, notify
ACE with a description of the vehicle.
I welcome your Questions, Comments, Complaints, and Suggestions!

The Alameda County Fair, Parking - UPDATE
**********************************************************************
The Alameda County Fair is upon us and with it, fun and frenzy. While
we encourage you to participate in the fair in Pleasanton, ACE is
fully aware of the parking challenges that may be presented at the
Pleasanton ACE Station.
The fair will be in full swing starting Friday, June 22, and
continuing on through July 8. During that time, parking at the
Pleasanton ACE Station may be unusually challenging. ACE
administration is currently involved in some negotiations which they
hope will alleviate some of the parking woes. Please be patient as we
work to create some alternatives to the fairground parking lot
challenges.
UPDATE - June 28, 2007 - ACE will be running a shuttle at the
Pleasanton Fair to help with overflow parking. If you find that
parking is a challenge during the fair, you may consider this as
another option until the end of the fair. We are using bus #53
everyday. The parking lot is located on Valley Road at gate #12. We
will run a bus in the morning to the train at 6:35 and 7:40 AM. In
the afternoon, the bus returns from the train at 4:40, 5:40, and 6:40
PM. Any questions, please call customer service at 1-800-411-RAIL.
**********************************************************************
New ACE Timetable To Go Into Effect On July 2, 2007
**********************************************************************
A new timetable has been printed and will be available on July 2,
2007.
One change reflected in the new July 2, 2007 timetable will affect the
ACE/Amtrak Bus #3910. The #3910 bus will no longer serve the Fremont
bus stop at Mission Boulevard and I-680. It will instead be routed to
the ACE/Amtrak Fremont Centerville Depot where all ACE trains
currently stop. The result, ACE will serve only one stop in Fremont
instead of two.
Secondly, to accomplish this change, the bus will be scheduled to
depart San Jose at 6:30 pm, and depart Santa Clara and Great America
stations 10 minutes earlier than the current times. The bus will
depart the Fremont/Centerville train depot at 7:20 pm. All remaining
down line bus schedule times will remain in effect as before.
Timetables will be available on board trains and through ACE ticket
locations.
**********************************************************************
School Groups to Great America
**********************************************************************
The Altamont Commuter Express will welcome several school groups
onboard the train during the month of July. The groups will be headed
to Great America and the breakdown is below. These numbers have not
been finalized yet and are considered tentative.
Tuesday, July 3 = Tracy to Great America = 115 Students on ACE #5
Monday, July 9 = Pleasanton to Great America = 25 Students on ACE #5 &
ACE #8
Monday, July 16 = Pleasanton to Great America = 29 Students on ACE #5
& ACE #8
Tuesday, July 24 = Stockton to Great America = 20 Students on ACE #5
Wednesday, July 25 = Pleasanton to Great America = 18 Students on ACE
#5 & ACE #6
Please extend common courtesy to these groups and thank you for your
support.

WiFi Testers Needed!
**********************************************************************
ACE administrators are calling on riders to help test the wireless
internet onboard the train. Are you interested in being included in
that team?
As many of you know, ACE recently began asking passengers to attempt
the WiFi service onboard the trains. ACE personnel have been told by
the contractors that service should be functional at this time, but
that it needs to be tested for performance. In order to test this new
service, ACE must call upon the riders for assistance, and if you are
interested, please observe the following:
-The testing team must be made up of passengers who normally ride ACE
#03 and ACE #06.
-Members of the team must provide daily email updates to ACE
administration for a specified length of time.
-You must be willing to accept phone calls from ACE administration,
who may occasionally call to review the service with you.
-Finally, all members of the testing team must be patient and
understand that we are still in a testing mode.
This team will be critical for the success of the WiFi service, please
respond ASAP.

ACE is currently working with Lathrop Police on the recent burglaries
at the Lathrop-Manteca Station. In addition, camera footage was
reviewed and forwarded to Lathrop Police for follow-up. We’re working
with them on increased patrols as well as using ACE Staff to randomly
monitor the lot. Other short-term solutions are being worked out at
this time. Updates will be made as soon as they’re implemented.
We’re also working to secure funding through Homeland Security which
will be used to upgrade system security cameras. More details to
follow.
ACE values your business and is working internally and with its
partners in the law enforcement community to make its parking lots
more secure!

ACE Wireless Internet Update
**********************************************************************
ACE and our vendors continue to test and configure the Wi-Fi system.
Recently we installed and programmed a "Gateway" to the network that
will help distribute the bandwidth. Currently we are working with the
equipment that represents ACE trains #03 & #06 because these are our
most populated trains.
We welcome all users to attempt to log on to the system on a regular
basis. The Gateway requires a User ID and Password to allow access.
The generic user ID during this testing phase is ACE.
The password during the testing phase is USER.
When asked to logon simply enter the above information in both fields
to access the system.
Please remember the system is still being tested and configured. We
would appreciate any feedback you might have as we work to get this
system operational. Please e-mail any comments or suggestions to
comments@....
We will provide updates as the final phases of implementation are
completed.

Detailed Breakdown of ACE's On-Time Performance
**********************************************************************
For the month of April ACE ran 168 trains; 129 were on-time, 38 were
late, and 1 was annulled. The on-time percentage was 77 percent.
The breakdown for the month was as follows:
Delayed 5 or less Minutes: 130
Delayed 6-10 Minutes: 19
Delayed 11-14 Minutes: 5
Delayed 15-19 Minutes: 1
Delayed 19 or more: 13
So far for the month of May as of the 8th, ACE has run 40 trains, not
counting the 8th. 30 Trains were on-time. As such, ACE is running at
75 percent on-time.
Delayed 5 or less: 12
Delayed 6-10 Minutes: 7
Delayed 11-14 Minutes: 0
Delayed 15-19 Minutes: 1
Delayed over 19: 1
Again, we apologize for the delays - we are trying to eliminate them
with Union Pacific Representatives. We are confident that together we
will minimize some of the delays soon.

Cabral Station Entryway Update
**********************************************************************
Plans are moving forward for a wonderful new entryway to the historic
Robert J. Cabral Station in Stockton. As reported last fall, ACE
staff have been working with Opticos Design, Kimley-Horn Associates,
and Odyssey on the design for a new entryway to the station from
Aurora Street, through what is currently the site of Bockman and Woody
Electric. ACE will be closing escrow soon on this property, with the
electric facility moving to a new location in Stockton. Demolition of
current buildings on the property will take place in the summer to
make way for the new formal entryway, complete with additional staff
and visitor parking, landscaping, walkways, a central green, a
security kiosk, and a landmark clock tower. Circulation will also be
improved, providing more convenient access for buses and cars
throughout the station area.
The City of Stockton’s Design Review Committee will review the
entryway plans for approval in mid-May, with construction expected in
the fall. For more information on the project, please contact Thomas
W. Reeves, Special Projects Coordinator, at 209-944-6242.

Spring Time is Group Time!
**********************************************************************
Now that we are well into spring, schools are making arrangements and
purchasing tickets to take class trips on ACE. Train travel is ideal
for school groups - large and small - to travel together economically
to destinations such as the Great America Theme Park, the Tech Museum,
and other destinations. Rail travel on ACE is not only fun and safe,
it’s educational too, as virtually all students receive Operation
Lifesaver Training prior to their train trip.
We want to thank our year round regular and loyal riders in advance
for your patience as we accommodate greater numbers of passengers this
time of year. If you know of a group or student class looking for a
travel alternative, get them in touch with our Group Representative
Laura Farley at Ph 209-944-6234. Better hurry - available space is
filling up fast!

Possible ACE Schedule Change - Feedback Needed
**********************************************************************
The San Joaquin Regional Rail Commission is considering altering the
current schedule for a few ACE trains. Based upon its ongoing
parternship with Caltrans, the SJRRC has proposed a change in schedule
so that more commuters could utilize the train-to-train mode of
transportation. In addition to the ease of using our train - with
this new schedule - to connect to Caltran, the SJRRC is acting upon
numerous inquiries from potential and existing passengers to add a
later P.M. commute option. This new schedule would affect the current
midday train schedule and add an evening commute train. All A.M.
commute-hour trains will remain the same.
The schedule below reflects the proposed schedule change. Please
review it closely and email us with your feedback. We REALLY need to
hear from our passengers before the Commission makes a decision on
this change.
The train that currently leaves Stockton at 9:30 A.M. would leave at
11:40 A.M., getting into San Jose at 1:50 P.M.
The train that currently leaves San Jose at 12:05 P.M. would be
elliminated.
The train that currently leaves San Jose at 3:35 P.M. would leave at
3:15 P.M., getting into Stockton at 5:25 P.M.
The train that currently leaves San Jose at 4:35 P.M. would remain the
same, getting into Stockton at 6:45 P.M.
The train that currently leaves San Jose at 5:35 P.M. would remain the
same, getting into Stockton at 7:45 P.M.
An additional train would be added and would leave San Jose at 6:40
P.M., getting into Stockton at 8:50 P.M.
Please email us below for your input.

Afternoon On-Time Performance Slips
**********************************************************************
The week of April 2, 2007 has seen a drop in on-time performance (OTP)
for ACE trains operating eastbound. Month-to-date, the OTP is
approximately 67% with evening trains being affected by freight train
interference. This week 16 Trains operated on time, with another 8
trains operating late into their destination.
As has been done in the past, top ranking Union Pacific Railroad
Officials are being briefed on dispatching decisions that adversely
affect ACE's on-time performance. We anticipate corrective action on
the part of the Union Pacific Railroad to improve ACE train
performance.
Thank you for your continued support.

performance of 82.5%. 7 trains for the week were late, accounting for

strive to improve the service levels expected by our customers.

For Many, ACE Only Part of Commute
**********************************************************************
Passengers who catch the ACE train in Stockton or Lathrop/Manteca
often add additional commute time before they even reach the ACE
stations. Many riders drive to the stations from Valley Springs,
Modesto, Sonora, and other origination points throughout the valley.
Are you one of those riders?
Why not share the journey to your station with others? Recently,
there has been a growing interest amongst passengers in carpooling to
the ACE stations and we would like to help! Please log onto the ACE
website and check out the Bulletin Board where you can read messages
and post new issues concerning ride-sharing. Many times a group of
passengers will ride together to the station and share the cost -
saving everyone in the group money and stress.
Please utilize ACE's Carpool Bulletin Board for all your ride-sharing
needs.

Effective immediately, hair styling utensils that generate heat or

For Many, ACE Only Part of Commute
**********************************************************************
Passengers who catch the ACE train in Stockton or Lathrop/Manteca
often add additional commute time before they even reach the ACE
stations. Many riders drive to the stations from Valley Springs,
Modesto, Sonora, and other origination points throughout the valley.
Are you one of those riders?
Why not share the journey to your station with others? Recently,
there has been a growing interest amongst passengers in carpooling to
the ACE stations and we would like to help! Please log onto the ACE
website and check out the Bulletin Board where you can read messages
and post new issues concerning ride-sharing. Many times a group of
passengers will ride together to the station and share the cost -
saving everyone in the group money and stress.
Please utilize ACE's Carpool Bulletin Board for all your ride-sharing
needs.

Important Onboard Regulation
**********************************************************************
Effective immediately, hair styling utensils that generate heat or
steam may not be used while on an ACE Train. This includes curling
irons, hot combs, blow dryers, etc. This applies to both passenger
compartments and restrooms.
This new policy is for health and safety reasons, and will reduce - or
eliminate - the chance of fire, rider injuries, or annoyance of other
riders.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Revitalizing the Area around Stockton’s Cabral Station
**********************************************************************
**Update: The Cabral Station Plan is now on display at the Stockton
train station lobby. Go check it out and give us your feedback!
With input from neighbors, businesses, local agencies, community
leaders and other stakeholders, ACE has developed a revitalization
plan that identifies a new vision for the neighborhood surrounding the
Robert J. Cabral Station in Stockton.
The plan envisions a new entryway and improved circulation for the
Cabral Station, improvements to surrounding streets, and ultimately
new housing and commercial development to complement the historic
station and surrounding Victorians, and improve the neighborhood’s
economy and vitality.
A display in the Cabral Station lobby provides highlights from the
neighborhood plan. In the next month or so, you’ll also be able to see
and comment on the design concept for the new entryway. We hope those
of you who use the Stockton station will stop in and see this vision
for the Cabral Station neighborhood.
For additional information, please go to the ACE website or contact
Thomas W. Reeves at thomas@... or (209) 944-6242.

COMeT: Development Process Update
**********************************************************************
A COMeT design concept was built and testing was performed. The
testing incorporated the creation of a mock passenger base that
attempted to simulate all the different types of traveler that would
utilize the COMeT system. Feedback was analyzed and stakeholder’s
final input was solicited.
So where are we now? The COMeT blueprint is created.
Through the information collected in the above process a system design
is in the final stages of completion. Through the next stages we will
be able to more accurately develop a timeline to address inquiries as
to when COMeT will see full implementation.
