A trip to Old Sacramento and the California Railroad Museum and it was a journey through history in the best way. We will let one of our residents tell it best:

"It is interesting to go back and to listen to the docents. Waves of fourth grade students happily explored the railroad paraphernalia, all the while behaving themselves. Meanwhile we elderly savored the history and remembered traveling by rail. That could be tedious, especially for a young mother with a toddler back in 1942, as they traveled from back east to California so as to be reunited with her husband. Amtrak threw in a routine favor of their own. A passenger train passed by the museum, running on the next door tracks and pulling into the station which are just across the street."
