Richards Blvd. Railroad Crossing & Future Dos Rios Station 3-12| SacRT Light Rails, Sacramento CA

Описание: Mar 12, 2026
Sacramento Regional Transit light rail trains on the SACRT Blue Line pass through the Richards Boulevard railroad crossing single tracking through the future Dos Rios Station in Sacramento, California.

Since I last was here, a sidewalk was added alongside North 12th Street connecting to Richards Blvd on the west side of the track. It's likely SACRT won't have side lights added to the pedestrian signal unfortunately. I wish they would rebuild the pedestrian crossing to accommodate the new sidewalk but that's not planned. Also, the station has now had its new inbound platform built in addition to the outbound platform that was built months prior to it and currently, the outbound platform mini-hi ramp is being built. There has been a second wayside aspect signal added also facing for inbound trains on the outbound track for future turn arounds.

Train numbers will be added later...
