All aboard!

The California State Railroad Museum will commence its excursion railroad on Easter weekend- April 3-4.
Riders will be treated to a 40-minute, 6 mile trip around Sacramento levees on the trains which are operated by Federal Railroad Administration certified volunteers.
Trains depart every hour on the hour from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekends through September.
Riders will experience old fashioned train travel by sitting in the vintage closed coaches, or open-air “gondolas” with bench style seating.
Regular excursion train tickets are $8 for adults and $3 for youths ages 6-17, ages 5and under ride free. For passengers desiring a ride aboard the first-class car El Dorado- a beautifully restored 1920s lounge observation car which offers large picture windows, plush seating and air conditioning- tickets are $15 per person.
