    For Father's Day, treat dad to some rail-related "eye candy" when seven rarely seen diesel locomotives from the Museum's impressive collection will be on special display inside and outside the Museum for one day only. In addition, dad will enjoy taking a memorable and relaxing Weekend Excursion Train Ride that is reminiscent of train travel from an earlier era. Those aboard are treated to a six-mile, 40-minute roundtrip excursion along the levees of the Sacramento River. The train features a combination of vintage closed coaches with comfortable seats and open-air "gondolas" with bench style seating.

    Same-day general admission Weekend Excursion Train Ride tickets are available in-person on a first-come, first serve basis.
