San Juan Capistrano Station - California, USA
Last updated October 12, 2026In the heart of San Juan Capistrano in Southern California, this camera looks along the platform of the town's old Santa Fe station, where Amtrak Pacific Surfliner and Metrolink trains stop and a few BNSF freights roll through.
The depot was built in 1894 in the Mission Revival style, with arches, a domed corner tower and red tile roofs. Today it houses a restaurant with a trackside patio, while Amtrak's ticket office and waiting room sit in vintage boxcars nearby.
A short walk away is Mission San Juan Capistrano, founded on November 1, 1776. Its great stone church collapsed in an earthquake in 1812, and the ruins still stand, while the trains carry on along the coast between San Luis Obispo and San Diego.
Did You Know? By tradition, the mission's swallows return from Argentina every year on March 19, St. Joseph's Day, and leave again on October 23.
