    TLDR: Do not trust this train station to get you to work or school. If you do, you'll be hours…read morelate, if you're able to show up at all. I remember when this used to be a lightrail station. Lightrail trains would show up every thirty minutes, from before 6am until after 10pm. These days, this is just a bus stop, where you can sometimes catch a train to the Sunrise lightrail station, if you're lucky. But, again, if you're expecting to get to work or school, I wouldn't count on it. We've gotten to the point where it's actually rare to see a train come through, and bus bridges are hit or miss. When we do have bus bridges, they virtually never leave at the same time that the train would have left. Instead, they operate on a schedule that is seemingly made up on the spot. You should never expect to know ahead of time when you might reach your destination, as that's asking SacRT for WAY too much. I tried to catch a train out of Folsom from this station on New Years Eve. I waited along with two other people for over half an hour before we heard a woman yelling, "Excuse me! There's no train coming!" She wasn't even a SacRT employee. She was someone who lived in Folsom, who had tried to take the train home from downtown. All of the passengers had been kicked off at Hazel, being told that the tracks into Folsom were flooded. When she got back to Folsom, and saw us waiting at the station, she felt bad for us, and decided to tell us. I find it really interesting that, in all of that time, no one from SacRT managed to let us know that a train wouldn't be coming. It's not just that they didn't set up a bus bridge-- they didn't even tell us that there weren't any buses or trains coming. Not only were we not notified that we were waiting for nothing, but the station announcements kept going while we were waiting. The ones that say things like, "Make sure to take a seat or grab on before the train starts moving." Why was this announcement system not used to let the people waiting at the station know that no buses or trains were coming? Instead, the way it was used made it seem like a train would be coming soon. I've taken buses and trains in so many cities, and I've never been to another city that doesn't have real time train updates at the station. Imagine if you went to the airport to pick up a friend, and their plane had been canceled three hours ago. But, rather than finding a sign that told you this in real time, all you could find was a sign that listed the times of the original plane schedules. That would suck really bad, right? That's how SacRT is, but with trains instead of planes. No one needs a sign that repeatedly flashes the times that the trains might have shown up, theoretically, if they ever showed up on time, when they literally never do. Not only that, but we have atmospheric rivers every single year. Is SacRT's plan really to cancel every train to Folsom every time it rains?

    Historic Folsom is one of the nicer SACRT light rail stations. Since it is the last station on the…read moreGold Line, you have your choice of seating before passengers at the next stations along the line start streaming in. All eastbound trains on the Gold Line don't stop at Historic Folsom. On weekdays, every other train stops here. Though on weekends, all trains during most of the day terminate at this station. Trains stop here every half hour during the day. And the last train to depart from this station daily is at 7 pm according to the Gold Line schedule which I recommend checking beforehand. The station has only one track, so the same train arriving into the station is the same one heading back the other way. There is a good amount of covered seating, unlike the light rail stations in downtown Sacramento which are primarily uncovered aside from the train ramp. If you are headed to Folsom Historic District, make sure to find out what time the train leaves this station so you can plan your visit in the area accordingly. This will ensure your wait at this station isn't too long. Though if the train is sitting at the station, you can board the train so you don't need to wait outside in the heat. If you don't want to drive all the way out to Folsom, I recommend taking the Gold Line here instead. This station is great if you are visiting the Folsom Historic District for a day since it is close to this area.

    Holiday train review - Absolutely spectacular and warm heartening experience for our 3 and 4 year…read moreold girls! I don't know what other low rating patrons are expecting... fireworks? High class service? Jazz band playing in every train car with speakers interconnected? We came expecting nothing and ended up having an incredible experience with beautiful decorations well suited for a sweet, memorable Christmas train experience. Online reservations were simple, easy to obtain, and a lot more affordable compared to the exorbant Polar Express tickets. We're extremely happy that we chose this over Sacramento's Polar Express. It's obvious that their staff spent a lot of time putting work into the trains inner and outter decor - beautiful and creative! Parents and adults FYI - on your way to your reserved train car, there's a small bar after boarding the train. It's very important to load up on your magic drinks before heading to your seat. (Drinks.. not drink! But drink responsibly, of course.) Parking isn't far and although limited, it shouldn't be a problem with reservations handled appropriately. We sang a few Christmas songs with the elves, threw snowballs at the grinch (best part, IMO), met Santa, and had a little fun at Santa's (little) village after the ride. Every sip of their hot cocoa (included with your tickets) was warming and delicious, perfect for cold weather. Couple of cookies came along with it, perfect for our kids to snack on. Overall, this was an incredible experience for our kids! Service was fantastic, ambiance was very jolly and felt like home, staff members are very friendly, and the experience is fantastic for all occasions - family, friends, and dates! The memories are ever lasting and hopefully it becomes a core memory that lasts a lifetime. Highly recommended to experience, at least once, for your little loved ones. We'll be back next year!

    We were NEVER SERVED ANY FOOD during our 2-hour Tea Train and could barely get water…read more About 30 minutes after boarding we were given hot water but no tea bags. We eventually found our own. Refills of hot water, cream, and drinking water required chasing down staff. After 45 minutes we began asking where the food was, while people in another section of the car had already ordered and eaten their meals. Staff kept saying the food would come "soon." It never did. At 1 hour 45 minutes the staff disappeared, and the train returned to the station at 2 hours. No food and no explanation. I had to insist on speaking with a manager and got a refund. I still don't understand how this could happen.

    While there is so much attention directed at building yet another municipal theatre that is meant…read moreto somehow rescue Sacramento from desolation, there is a transit system here that has rapidly become a joke rather than a service intended to ease traffic and stimulate our economy by making it possible to work outside the city and bring shopping dollars back home to local businesses. So here are some things about our Public Rail System that I have decided should be better... Cleaner Stations/Rail Coaches: Many of the stations are becoming filthy, with piles of garbage welcoming you as you approach them. And too often, once aboard a rail coach there is more garbage like half eaten fast food boxes, beer/soda cans, clothing, newspapers and occasionally, even globs of phlem or urine. People smoke, drink, play loud music, rest their feet on the seats or just do whatever they please, in spite of the posted rules of conduct or the G4A Security presence. Restrooms: I know that Sacramento generally frowns on the homeless, but am I being prepesterous to suggest public restrooms that actually remain open on weekends, not only on street corners and parks, but even at or near bus/rail stops and terminals. Would this not be citizen friendly? On-board Rail Fare Machines: In Portland Oregon, the new streetcars have fairboxes inside. That way, if a fare machine is malfunctioning or you dont have the correct change as your train to rapidly approaches, you can simply hop on and buy a ticket from an on-board machine, thereby avoiding contact with transit cops or being late to ,wherever you were headed. Smart Fare Machines: Variable payment options are nice. But how about a fare machine or system that also allows you to pay only for your ddestination, rather than a flat fare of $2.50 [or eventually $3.00?] when you're only going a few blocks or maybe a couple of stops down the line? Sounds very neighborly to me. Security: Yes, even though this might be an area of concern for Gen. Mgr. Mike Wiley, that calls for funds and manpower. But considering the homicides that have occured on the train, a trip after dark, through certain areas can feel a bit spooky when there are criminally or mentally ill people doing any and everything on board. This really should get more attention. Questions: Why did they decide to end the Watt/80 route at Watt Avenue, when there is essentially nothing there like any shopping centers, to make it a resonable destination? And speaking of shopping centers, why does the said train avoid the Arden Fair Mall? Why does the northbound Watt/80 train stop on the right side of the Alkali Flat Station, but opens its left side doors so you step off right into a wheelchair ramp gaurd rail, while there is plenty of room to deboard on the right, where there is a curb and sidewalk? Why was another station created at 7th and K less than a block north of the 7th and Capitol station? Why was not the Sac Valley Amtrak line originally designated to later become the Airport Service line. It could have just continued northbound on 8th Street and assumed the Township 9 route at G Street, with line 34 intersecting at F Street to provide an Amtrak Station Shuttle.

Once, when I was walking down Stockton Blvd., I had an experience similar to what Blake described in his review for this station, but, anyway... From Folsom, Zinfandel Station is the 7th station on the gold line. In theory, trains come by every fifteen minutes in each direction. In reality, the trains are often delayed, but you can always find their current status on the Sacrt website. Zinfandel station is conveniently located near Wal-Mart, 99 Only, Target, Ross, Marshall's, Crumbl Cookie, Ulta, and more. Public art at this station includes several cement greyhound dogs, which are sometimes decorated with bird scat and/or graffiti. There are also lots of cherry trees, which are just beginning to bloom as I write this review. The chances of running into sketchy characters at this station are about 100%. There is usually a security guard nearby, but not always. I personally would not go near this station without carrying pepper spray, but that's just me. Overall, not the safest station, but it is very conveniently located within walking distance of lots of popular retail stores.
