SACRAMENTO LIGHT RAIL
Terminal, Amtrak Abreast |
|
|
|
The short downtown extension -- about one-half
mile -- to Sacramento Valley, opened in late 2006. It ends
adjacent to the Amtrak station platforms. In this
scene an eastbound California Zephyr was making its stop, soon to continue
from the Bay Area on to Chicago.
Light rail from here goes along the Folsom Corridor, either to
Sunrise, or all the way out to Historic Folsom. The full route
is about 30 miles long, ranking it in the upper tier of U.S. lines for
distance. It takes about 55 minutes to travel between the two
farthest
locations. |
