Additional Notes

The station building is large, but passenger facilities are limited to a waiting room, shelter and platform.  The station is unmanned.  However, the Paso Robles area is a popular location for wine tasting, agri-tourism, equestrian events, and other outdoor activities.  Normally quiet, the city swells with thousands of visitors during the annual Mid-State Fair, which recently has featured top musical talent, and hotel rooms may be difficult to find during “Fair Week.”
