I am arriving on a Sunday Morning at around 730 am, I was curious does anyone know if this is possible and safe (will not have much luggage ):
Take Flyaway bus from LAX to LA Union station $8
Take Surfliner Train from Union Station to Anaheim $15
Cab from Anaheim Train station to Harbor (unknown cost)

I do realize it would be cheaper and faster to take Disneyland Express however I am on vacation site seeing, love trains, and not in a hurry to get to the hotel (not going to park til Monday Morning)
 
It's as safe as any public transportation, which means you have to be aware of your surroundings and be responsible for your belongings. On a weekend, especially if it's a holiday weekend or there's an event happening in OC or SD you will likely be asked to check even a small suitcase that would be considered a carryon on a plane. And I'll warn you, there is absolutely no scenery between Union Station and Anaheim. If you want to see something, take the train further south to San Diego. If you can take a shuttle to your hotel, and be in the park by 9:30-10am, it might be worth swapping out another park day for a day trip to SD by train.

Look into Metrolink Trains, may have a better schedule or not to Amtrak, might be less expensive as well. www.metrolinktrains.com Look up the Orange County Line from Union Station. You want to stop at the Anaheim-ARTC station. My husband and I have done it. :)

Thanks, I would of thought though that Sunday would be busier at Disneyland than a Monday but guess you never know

True shuttle maybe best bet but doubt I could check in that early although I know they probably have baggage storage
