The California State Railroad Museum is a world-class historical attraction nestled in Old Sacramento’s Waterfront District. Renowned as one of North America’s premier railroad museums, it houses over 20 meticulously restored locomotives and railcars—from the famous 1862 Gov. Stanford to the Southern Pacific 4294 “Cab‑Forward” and historic diesel engines. Exhibits chronicle the Golden State’s railroad legacy, including the Transcontinental Railroad and the impact of rail travel on Western expansion. Family-friendly features like a toy train gallery, kid’s play area, and excursion rides along the Sacramento Southern Railroad enhance the experience . Educational programs and costumed docents bring history to life. A Smithsonian affiliate, this museum draws train enthusiasts, history buffs, and families alike.
