All Aboard! Experience California as is was 100 years ago at the Western Railway Museum.
The Western Railway Museum offers Interurban Train Excursions every weekend year round. Our 50 minute round trip Interurban Train Rides will take you down the old Sacramento Northern Railroad, an electric line that once ran between San Francisco, Sacramento & Chico. The 11 mile round trip rolls through the Solano County countryside, with its pristine, unchanged farmland and its views of Mount Diablo and the surrounding Marshlands. Our operating fleet consists of trains dating anywhere from 80 to 110 years old. All trains are operated by uniformed operating attendants.
Tickets include Museum admission, a 50-minute interurban train ride, and, based on volunteer availability, a docent led tour of our display house.
Museum hours and operations may change at any time due to weather or equipment.
