California State Railroad Museum [May 1999]
Sacramento, the state capitol, is also home to
the California State Railroad Museum. The Museum is conveniently
located within a short walk of the Sacramento Amtrak Station.
Three Amtrak routes (the Capitols, the San Joaquins, and the
California Zephyr) conveniently service the city, providing
plenty of incentive for a trip-by-train to the CSRM.

At the Sacramento Amtrak station, a westbound
Capitol awaits its departure time. At
one time, this
station had eight platforms, but today, only two remain.
