Track Replacement Project

About Project

California State Parks and the California State Railroad Museum Foundation replaced and improved drainage of approximately 1,000 feet of a portion of the railroad track mainline south of Capitol Mall along the Old Sacramento Waterfront located along the California State Railroad Museum's excursion line in Old Sacramento State Historic Park.
