Is it still possible to connect from the Sunset to the CS in LA to travel north? Thank you.

Of course it is, Ms. Breeze.

Simply make hotel arrangements in LA (the Biltmore is a classic), line up some activities for the afternoon ("star gazing" if that's your thing), "have a "sleep-in' next morning and get on down to LAUPT to catch #14 which is scheduled to depart 23' 50" after your scheduled 1010AM arrival on #1.

Or if your daring as soon as the Sunset arrives you could run from the train to the ticket counter and buy tickets for the Starlight. You'll have plenty of time since its always early.

Well you'd be early for the next days train wouldn't you? Sort of like the old joke; A commuter askes another "Did I miss the 8:10 ? other says I don't know I'm still waiting for the 7:40!
