     History
    Stockton has long been a major rail hub. After the completion of the Trans-Continental railroad, Stockton became a large rail terminal, thanks to its strategic location in Central California. Southern Pacific, Western Pacific, Santa Fe, Central California Traction, Stockton Terminal & Eastern, and Tidewater Southern have all been active here. Rail operations in Stockton have decreased, but are still going strong.
