From my separate City of Auburn review:…read more Auburn is an attractive city, especially Old Town Auburn, which attracts passersby on the highway between Reno and Sacramento with the quaint architecture on a hill flanked by a giant sculpture. Its small-town charm is likely why movies like Rocky and Bullwinkle, Breakdown, Wisdom, and xXx had scenes shot here, but the town relates most to the 1996 John Travolta movie Phinome Phenomin Phenomm Look Who's Talking. The guy who discovered gold here in 1849 was memorialized by Ken Fox with a 45-ton concrete (rebar and wire mesh) statue at the entrance of Old Town. Ken Fox was a dentist able to do this in between teeth cleanings and forcing customers to look at super close-up pictures of their teeth in order to sell "special deep teeth cleaning" by the quadrant. This dentist has more "Great Statues" in the area which you'd likely find ful-"filling". Get it? Anyway, it's right off the highway, so stop there and check out Old Town. (Check my reviews on Edelweis 2 and the California Club)

The first thing that pops in my head when I think of Auburn is the Black RailRoad Bridge. No…read morematter where I'm going too or returning from, I know that when I see the black railroad bridge I am in Auburn and Sacramento is only 45 minutes away. Over the course of my lifetime, I have driven under this bridge over a hundred times . On our way home from one of many fishing trips to Frenchmen or Davis Lake, my father would always stop at a little convenient store next to the bridge to purchase ice cream cones to eat on the way home. What wonderful memories! This black bridge was built in 1909 and actually has a name, (Auburn Ravin Bridge )or referred to (I-80 RailRoad Bridge). The upper part of the bridge is still part of the original bridge. During the expansion of highway 80 years ago, the bottom section of the bridge had to be modified to support the expansion. The bridge design was ( Pratt Riveted deck truss ).This section of the bridge supports the railroad over I-80. Am Trak / BNSF Railway/ & Union Pacific Railroad still currently use the railroad bridge. Over a hundred years old and still going strong ! Woo - Hoo to American Engineering and to all the men and women whom make America Strong !

The employees at this Auburn Visitor Center and the volunteers at this Visitor Center are very knowledgable not only of Auburn, but also other towns of Placer County. There are Visitor Guides of different towns of California. Go by districts, so as example, Bay Area, Monterey area, San Joaquin County, Southern California. One time two of them telling me stories of the Women Prison at the museum at Historic Court House. It is actually outside the Court House, if one looks, there was small area for the bed, the sink, and the toilet. Very first time I ever visited Auburn, asked of Forgotten Soldier Program Park. Wow, it is walkable of this Auburn Visitor Center. Now this to me strange. There also Placer County Visitor Center. I am fourth person for that. What is strange it is exact address, same directions, same telephone number.
