JPA agrees to a 5 year lease for the P&SVRR

On May 2nd, the JPA voted to pass the five year lease for the P&SVRR to run excursion trains.  The member agencies(Folsom, Sac County, El Dorado County) have to ratify the lease.  El Dorado County is currently looking at removing most the rail in their county.  The corridor is very wide (100 Ft. in most places) so there is plenty of room for everyone, trails and excursion railroad.  El Dorado County will vote on whether to move forward with removal of this 150 year old historical railroad on May 17!  We need your help in making sure the railroad is preserved for future generations.   It is connected to the 1st railroad ever to be built west of the Mississippi back in the 1850's!  


Everyone, everywhere has a voice and can make a difference in this.
