Fascinating California State Railroad Museum 🚂

📍 California State Railroad Museum 125 I St, Sacramento, CA 95814 💰 Adults: $12 | Youths: $6 | Under 5: Free As California’s capital, Sacramento was once the economic heart of the state’s industrial era. While it may feel quieter compared to the booming Bay Area 🏙️➡️🍃, more people are moving here due to the high cost of living in the Bay. And surprise—Sacramento has plenty of cultural and entertainment offerings too! ✨ Highlights of the Museum: Steam and railroad trains from 1892 to 1944 🕰️, showcasing the era that sparked the Gold Rush 🌟 A simulated steam train cab for kids to experience being a train conductor! 🚆👧👦 A dedicated exhibit honoring the contributions of Chinese workers to the U.S. railroad system 🛤️🙏 – an important tribute to history. Upstairs, you’ll find more model trains 🚄✨ and a children’s play area – perfect for letting little ones burn some energy! 🔥 🎞️ Old Sacramento Right outside the museum lies the historic Old Town. With its well-preserved architecture, it feels like stepping into a Western movie set 🎬—bustling and alive, much like it was 150 years ago. 🌉 Tower Bridge This bright yellow iron bridge connects the old town with the new district. It was even featured in the movie Lady Bird 🎥💛! A perfect half-day trip filled with history, trains, and scenic charm — highly recommended for families and history buffs alike 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦❤️. #RailroadMuseum #MuseumLovers #BayAreaLife #DayTrips #Sacramento #FamilyFun
