The Sacramento Southern Railroad is a heritage railroad owned by the California State Railroad Museum which operates excursion trains on it.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=All Aboard! Excursion Train Rides )〕 The railroad extends from the museum property located in Old Sacramento south along the east bank of the Sacramento River levee. The original Sacramento Southern Railroad ran south to Walnut Grove, California via Freeport and was a non-operating subsidiary of the Southern Pacific Company incorporated in 1903. The line was constructed between 1906–1912, and the first train began operating over the line in 1909.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History of the Sacramento Southern Railroad )〕 It was merged in 1912 with the Central Pacific Railroad upon completion of the line to Walnut Grove. The line was extended to Isleton by 1929. In 1931, a extension of the branch reached the Mokelumne River.〔 The railroad later became a part of the SP system who filed with the Interstate Commerce Commission to abandon the line, and did so on October 10, 1978.〔 Around that time the California State Railroad Museum started acquiring the rail property, and started excursions in 1982.〔 Recent years have seen a resurgence in the road's freight business, serving a number of local industries via an interchange with the Union Pacific Railroad. Future plans call for expanding operations southward into the Sacramento River Delta area. ==See also== * List of heritage railroads in the United States * Sacramento RiverTrain—which operates excursions across the Sacramento River from the SSR 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sacramento Southern Railroad」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
