Train Station Transfers — Sacramento Valley Station

Meeting a train at Sacramento Valley Station

On I Street at the edge of Old Sacramento.

Worth knowing. The Capitol Corridor to the Bay Area is frequent and reliable, and a car at each end is often the whole journey solved.

Rail schedules slip. We track the service by number, hold thirty minutes of complimentary wait from the actual arrival, and — at the larger stations — meet you on the concourse with a name board rather than leaving you to find a car in a pickup lane you have never used.

Why the train is often the better leg

On the Northeast Corridor and the Florida Brightline route, rail frequently beats flying door to door once security and taxi queues are counted. The weak link is the last mile at each end, and replacing that with a chauffeured car — booked at a fixed fare, tracked to the arrival — is the whole point of this service.

Onward in Sacramento

Sacramento's weekday work is government and healthcare — the Capitol, the state agencies, the lobbying firms and the university medical centre. Its weekend work is the gateway role: Napa is an hour west, Lake Tahoe about two hours east, and Sacramento International is often a cheaper and quieter arrival for both than the Bay Area airports.
