Share a little California railway history with the next generation in this Sacramento Northern Railway Infant Bodysuit. The interurban connected Chico, Sacramento, and Oakland after two earlier rail systems came together under one name. Passenger trains like the Comet and Meteor once crossed the region, and portions of the former route now live on through heritage rail, transit, freight, and trails. A charming choice for rail-loving families and those who cherish Northern California history.
The Sacramento Northern Railway grew from two California interurban systems. The Northern Electric Railway began service between Chico and Sacramento in 1907, after its predecessor, the Chico Electric Railway, was sold in 1906. It became the Sacramento Northern Railroad in 1914. To the south, the Oakland, Antioch and Eastern Railway opened service in stages and completed service between Oakland and Sacramento in 1914; after receivership, it was reorganized as the San Francisco–Sacramento Railroad in 1920. Western Pacific acquired that railroad in 1922 and formed a new Sacramento Northern Railway in 1925 to group its interurban holdings. The two routes were consolidated under the Sacramento Northern name in 1928, connecting Chico and Oakland across 183 miles and through Sacramento. Passenger trains, including the Comet and Meteor, offered long-distance interurban service; some included dining cars. Passenger operations ended in 1941 as the railway shifted toward freight. Diesel locomotives gradually replaced electric operation, which ended in 1965. The Sacramento Northern name ended when Union Pacific acquired Western Pacific in 1983. Today, portions of its former route serve heritage rail, freight, transit, and trail uses.
