Sacramento Southern Railroad

THE CALIFORNIA STATE RAILROAD MUSEUM’S EXCURSION RAILROAD The Sacramento Southern Railroad is a 50 minute excursion train ride from The California State Railroad Museum located in Old Sacramento, Sacramento California. This morning I caught up with the train shortly after it pulled out of the station and it was traveling near the Embassy Suites Hotel along the Sacramento River. The route takes you along the Sacramento River, you can sit in an open car or and enclosed car, the views of the river and wildlife are beautiful. Do yourself a favor and check the Sacramento Southern Railroad Excursion out, you wl not be disappointed! If you find my review helpful, please give me a thumbs-up Thank you!

I have exhausted the railroad museum from the museum capacity as well as attended the evening concerts organized by Candlelight from The Fever! The place and the show both are mind boggling! Absolutely love it.

Great price for the value. They come up with new events all the time. The volunteers really do seem to put their all effort into their designated tasks and adds a certain charm to the experience. Just recently went on their trick or treat ride. Really cool atmosphere too with all the designs.

This was a lot of fun. The only thing I wish this tour could have included was more of a submersive train ride like going around the City or something. Overall it was good, but the ride was pretty much in a straight line. The kids loved it though and that's what counts.

I love the Sacramento Southern Railroad. The railroad was first chartered in 1903 and completed all the way to Walnut Grove by 1912. The Sacramento Southern extends far past the limits of the current excursion train which only runs down to baths. The tracks are still in existence extending for a total of 16 miles down to the delta town of hood. In 1932 the railroad was extended from Walnut Grove to Iselton. When the line was started they dreamed it would be the straight route all the way to San Francisco. Via Antioch. The planned route would have extended past Iselton continuing through the delta crossing over the San Joaquin river to Antioch. There it would have linked up with another proposed railroad that basically follows the path of BART which today ends in Antioch. The old route is the "Donner Pass of the Delta", the most efficient route from Sacramento to the Bay Area.

So much fun for kids and adults
