Location

Auburn station is an Amtrak train station in Auburn, California. It is served by one daily Capitol Corridor round trip; it is the eastern terminus of that service. The station is also served by two Amtrak Thruway routes – one between the station and Sacramento and one between Sacramento and Sparks, Nevada.[2]

The station has a single side platform served by a siding track off Track 2 of Union Pacific Railroad's route over Donner Pass.[1] Because of the geography of the city, the Union Pacific's mainline tracks are split, with Track 1 running through the eastern side of the city and Track 2 crossing the western side of the city.[6]

Auburn station opened in January 1998.[6] In March 2008, the station (formerly Auburn Multimodal Station) was renamed Robert F. Conheim Auburn Train Station after a long-time Auburn rail rider, who died the previous year.[8]
