4. Safely crossing the tracks at the Sacramento station
Given the increase in train traffic (both passenger and freight trains) traveling through the Sacramento station, please use the subway tunnel to access either the station building or train. As a result of increased train traffic, you will most likely board Capitol Corridor trains from the center platform in Sacramento, making the subway tunnel the safest and most direct route to the station or train. If you use a wheelchair, look to the station security guard or Amtrak Usher for assistance to cross the tracks safely. Thank you for helping us keep Sacramento a safe station for our passengers.

Wanna blaze new trails this weekend? Time to ride the rails! Plan a day trip to San Francisco, visit friends in Sacramento, catch an Oakland A’s game, or explore Old Sacramento. Instead of being stuck in the car, grab a snack in the Cafe Car, relax in comfy seats and enjoy the view. The adventure starts the moment you’re all aboard.
