: Pacific Railroad Freight Depot in Old Sacramento (located on Front Street between J and K Streets)
Saturdays & Sundays, October 11 & 12; 18 & 19; 25 & 26
This delightful, not frightful train is just the ticket for the family. Enjoy the train ride along the levees of the river while the “skeleton” crew passes out a special toy treat for each child. Each weekend is specially themed: Oct. 11 & 12 – Superheroes; October 18 & 18 – Pirates & Princesses; October 25 & 26 – Witches & Wizards.

My love for exploring and creating experiences with my three kids led to the founding of SacramentoSidetracks.com in 2009. I realized that Sacramento has so much to offer and I was excited to share my findings with other parents. Besides simply having fun, these are the other positive side effects of taking my kids on outings that I’ve discovered: we have quality time together away from the distractions at home, we cultivate our curiosity, learn new things, conversations are triggered by what we see and do, we connect and bond as a family, and we create new memories. Ready to get sidetracked, too? Let me be your guide!
