PVT, I know you live there and are much more familiar with San Jose than I am, but the bus terminal is on Calle 16 between Avenidas 1 and 3. That is like saying Zona2 is in the same general area as the Calle 6 MP's. Maybe the security situation around the bus terminal and around the Calle 6 MP's is the same, I don't know.
You are right, the (main) station itself is 5 blocks west and one south of the Calle 6 MPs so around 600 yards true distance from the MPs. In my defense, when I think of Coca-Cola I think of the entire area, not just the main station as Z-Man commented on above. I also thought if people were thinking of doing some shopping around there, most of the stores/shops are east of the main station so only a few hundred yards from Calle 6 MPs hence my 'same general area' comment. This entire area is generally the same security wise as Calle 6 IMHO. Daytime isn't any problem (except for rampant pick-pockets) but not a place you want to be in after dark!
