We went with…read morefriends their young children had never been on a train before wanted them to experience it. All the adults have been on trains before but it has been many years. I noticed not that many times to choose from going to Davis from Sacramento. We missed the 2 pm. We had to wait almost an hour and half until the next one. We bought our tickets then realized no one told us where we actually get onto the train. Our friend went back in..at the ticket booth the man that helped us was very nice and very helpful. He gave the kids coloring books and pins. Finally on the train it was bumper then I remembered, moved around a lot reminded me being on boat. Can not have bags or luggage out on tables or seats. I think we got called out, but we weren't sure since it was over the load speaker. We had a small bag it had food and snacks in it. We put into the over head. We went to check out the food car. So the kids could feel what it was like to walk from car to car..the food car was mostly over priced snacks. Canned, bottled drinks and packs of chips or nuts. When we arrived in Davis. They said over the loud speaker they do not stop for to long you need to get off so get ready. We couldn't open the over head to get our bag back out. It was stuck. Other passengers helped us open it, they said you really need to pull it hard. Once off the train the Davis train station and building looked so old and run down..so sad looking compared to Sacramento station. We didn't know no one would be there to buy return tickets. But they do offer more times leaving back to Sacramento. We purchased online. We had many people asking if they were in the right place while we were waiting. Davis such a cute town seems like they would clean up the station areas.

Took the Capitol Corridor route from Sacramento to Berkeley…read more These days for the price of gas and parking plus the increasing unsafe drivers on the road, taking the train was a great choice. I purchase my ticket online and it was fairly easy. The customer service was good. There was a rep in the lobby that clarified my pickup destination and offered a golf cart ride if needed. The train was full but not crowded. I was able to find a seat fairly easily. The ride was comfortable, I was able to read my book and relax. The downside was that I would've liked to wipe down my chair and table. Yes it's public transportation but it would be nice if they had Clorox wipes and sanitary stations available for passengers to wipe down their area.

A few included Davis, Fairfield, Vacaville, Richmond, Suisan City,Martinez, Berkeley and Emeryville and of course Sacramento and Jack London Square in Oakland Check their schedule if you're considering taking a ride. I bought my ticket to ride the morning of my trip from the train station counter. I paid $60 round trip. Conductors come through the train and ask to see your ticket for proof of payment. This is an option if you want to get to Sacramento from the Bay Area without driving. Once you get off the train in Sacramento, there are a lot of places within walking distance. The ride along the Bay is scenic, you'll get a glimpse of the American River close to the Sacramento station. I enjoyed views of the water and a mostly peaceful train ride. If you want to nap or work, it's easy. Bring headphones if you quiet and or focus time. I added a few shots I took on my outbound ride. My trains were on time departing coming and going.

The actual train experience was fine, just a tad late in both directions--maybe up to 30 minutes on…read moreboth trips in different stations, the connection between San Francisco and Emeryville and back required bus connections. The scenery on the train is mostly very pretty once we past by the freeways and overpasses. We pass through lots of water scenery and open fields. I did get a bit sleepy during the train rides. Aside from a little anxious missing my stop, mostly very pleasant trip.

The reason for the reduced star rating is that they keep ticketing people (over a hundred dollars) for not paying, even when they paid and the machine didn't register properly, even when they just forgot but have a monthly pass, they don't care... and I don't understand how this is supposed to encourage people to use pubic transportation? I meant public, but that too.

SacRt is horrible. No stars here. RT does not consider the people they serve. Many riders have…read moreresponsibilities that must be met. Does RT care? I think not. Between the bus bridges. The Green line has not operated for approximately a year. The RT stations periodically closed. Now all stations in the downtown area are closed. The new trains are very dangerous. We are forced to ride RT with every conceivable thing crowded together with bikes, scooters, carts and people. Accidents that include injuries are going to happen. The doors and the disability ramps don't operated correctly. The electronic signs often don't work or the trains frequently are late 15 minutes or more. One operator error can cause you major injuries with all the various things that are crowded in the new trains major accident including injuries will occur. If you get injured on RT's new and improved trains call "Bank on Frank Penny". He is attorney that is handling accident injury cases against RT. This attorney's is 5 stars. My bet is an Americans with Disability Class Action law suit is coming to SacRT. The physically disabled riders can not board. The ramps and doors don't operate correctly not allowing the disabled riders board. They are left standing in the station. The new and improved RT system is a recipe for a accidents including injuries.

No Trash Cans At Either The 7th Or 8th St-Ends Of O Street…read more SITREP Trash still mounts up here and litter all over because of no trash receptacles even though I've informed SacRT via Yelp, their Facebook pages or even their own website comment boxes. THE SETUP The irony is, the LAST time I saw a trash receptacle at the station is when I took this picture! https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/7th-and-capitol-and-8th-and-capitol-light-rail-stations-sacramento?select=1OvV8PKsov8UQXxDKrmCtQ I certainly hope the implication was not that if a homeless person is going to use a trash receptacle as a seat that you remove the trashcan(?) I really hope SacRT would not be that moronic. But....I forget who we're talking about. Morons run the district. It IS what it IS.

It's environmentally friendly. It's usually properly air conditioned in summer. It's worth noting that this stop, like most in the grid, has two platforms, one for the eastbound train and one for the westbound. Be sure to watch for the end destination before you get onto a train. If you get off at 8th and O versus 8th and Capitol, they're so close to each other you're going to be fine. It'll be ok.

Talk about service and approachability and just a kind person he made up for the security staff for sure. Rasheed is the only reason I would give them a four star.

Well allow me. It's a decent one, and it's one of select locations gifted with a remodel due to the insertion of the GOLDEN ONE CENTER a mere block away. Let this station be your ticket back to Folsom or CRC from Downtown. It gets busy with people exiting events and Kangs games, but that's what I like about it. Safety in numbers. This is your stop if you're looking to attend a Kings game or event at G1C, stroll around Capitol Mall, have dranks at Ruhstaller, or dine at Sauced, Morton's, or House Kitchen. Morton's is across the street from this station on Capitol & 7th. There's also a Union Bank ATM available, and for whatever reason a plethora of rubbish bins. I appreciate that they always have security guards at this station and how well lit it is at night. There are functioning ticket machines each time I visit, which is a welcome sight at any Stinkrail Station. Heck, it used to be a rarity.

California Zephyr Chicago-Sacramento, June 15-17, 2026. Train 5, Bedroom 532A. Here's the good -…read morethe staff was super friendly. Our room attendant, Ricky, helped us with bed set up, showed us where bottled water was stashed, and even tried to fix the broken upper birth (see Bad) to no avail. The dining was fine. Train food with the same menu for the duration of the trip. They ran out of a few things along the way (chicken for Caesar salad, for example), but restocked in Denver. The dining car staff was really great - sweet and very patient. Our party of 2 people was seated with another party of 2 every time - there is only one dining car for all the folks so they require you to make a reservation or eat in your room. All we did for two and a half days was look out the window and eat, so really nice that the staff was so sweet! Bad - the room that we paid a lot of money for had a broken bed. I am still trying to convey this to Amtrak customer service (the phone customer service is really UGLY, due to understaffing I think after waiting for someone for over an hour now). So if you are booked into room 532A - get reassigned! We tried to do this but the train was sold out. There is something wrong with paying what we did for the experience and being given no sleep. The rooms themselves are pretty nice - we didn't feel the need to fight for observation car space (there are probably 30 - 40 seats total in observation car with zero time restrictions). Why they don't have more than one observation car for a sold out train is a mystery to me . . . so many Amtrak mysteries. Scenery was outstanding. We met fun people. My carry-on size suitcase did fit on the room's luggage rack. My son brought a backpack. Rooms are so small that it is a huge challenge to change into jammies at night. Will never do this again. Be warned - the Nebraska tracks are very bumpy and the train seems to have made up time at night - hang on! Hi Yelpers! . . . here's a GOOD update, which I'm adding a month later . . . My outreach to Amtrak Customer Service ultimately turned out to be a super positive experience! After sending them a note with photo documentation of our experience, I received a form letter that seemed like no one had read the complaint. I replied to that form letter in a positive manner with same complaint - the upper berth in our bedroom was broken and we got very little sleep on the trip. I detailed this misfortune, including photos, and the very next day received an apology from Amtrak rep and a promise (which was kept!) to refund half of the cost of the trip! They refunded us on our credit card - no voucher for future travel! THANK YOU AMTRAK!!! Probably won't do the trip again, but I wanted to update the experience. I am shocked that we received a refund. Keep the faith folks! :-)
