The Sacramento River Fox Train is a scenic train ride that operates along the Sacramento River in California. It offers passengers a nostalgic journey through the picturesque countryside aboard vintage passenger cars pulled by a historic diesel locomotive. The train travels from West Sacramento to Woodland, showcasing beautiful views of the river, farmlands, and wildlife along the way. The experience is enhanced by themed events and activities onboard, making it a popular choice for tourists and locals alike seeking a unique and memorable rail adventure.

A number of different train experiences are offered, like Boba Tea Train where they serve up boba tea and dumplings, or the Old Vine Express which offers a luxury wine tasting experience, or the Murder Mystery Train, which, you can probably guess... has a murder mystery!

One of THE best things about the River Fox Train, is that is is dog-friendly! On just about every train experience offered, you can purchase a seat for your furry friend to join you!

They also have sister trains that run out of Fort Bragg and Willits in Northern California, which is called The Skunk Train, as well as Ventura in Southern California which is called The Sunburst.
