Date: 11/27/24 18:11 Re: Crockett California Author: Passfanatic Neat that the SP had a station there. I know that today, Amtrak trains pass through Crockett without stopping. There is a proposal to have an Amtrak Station in Hercules which would be nice! I know that the stretch between Martinez and Richmond is probably a ways without a stop.
