Roseville station is an Amtrak train station in Roseville, California, United States. It is served by the long-distance California Zephyr and regional Capitol Corridor .
History
[edit ]Passenger rail service to Roseville ended on May 1, 1971, when Amtrak took over intercity passenger service. Although Amtrak continued running the City of San Francisco , the stop at Roseville was discontinued.[4] When the Coast Starlight was rerouted over Southern Pacific's East Sacramento Valley Line in 1982, Roseville was not included as a stop for the train.[5] The City of San Francisco's successor, the California Zephyr, began stopping at Roseville on October 25, 1987.[6] [7]
The Capitols (later renamed Capitol Corridor) began running between San Jose and Sacramento on December 12, 1991, with one of its three daily round trips running to Roseville.[8] A new station building opened on March 5, 1994.[9] It is a replica of similar Southern Pacific Railroad stations from the early 20th century.[10]
