It’s officially spring break season and the perfect time to escape for a family vacation. With gas prices on the rise consider an eco-friendly, low cost, and fun for everyone’s spring vacation and ride the rails to North San Diego.
Metrolink just partnered with Sheraton Carlsbad Resort & Spa to offer Southern California families a getaway package that includes hopping on board a train in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino or Ventura Counties destined for Oceanside and free shuttle transportation to the Sheraton Carlsbad Resort & Spa.
