Ride the rails to NASCAR

For the third consecutive year, fans can ride a train to the Toyota/Save Mart 350 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series event at Sonoma Raceway in June 28.

“The train to NASCAR has been a resounding success in its first two years,” said Steve Page, Sonoma Raceway president and general manager. “Our fans have told us it turned their race experience into a full day’s adventure, and they can’t wait to board the train again this June.”

The Raceway Fun Train will transport fans directly from the Sacramento area to the raceway on race day, Sunday, June 28.  The train departs from Sacramento, stops in Davis and Suisun City, and traverses some of Northern California’s most spectacular scenery before dropping passengers just steps from the raceway’s main entrance.

Race fans should act fast, as this year’s train is expected to be a sellout. Last year’s train was a huge success, and we are pleased to utilize the SMART-owned track to bring back the Raceway Fun Train.

The Raceway Fun Train, formerly the NASCAR Express, offers fans a unique alternative to avoid highway traffic and parking hassles on race-day, and will feature café cars with on-board food and beverage service.

“I loved riding the NASCAR train for the second year in a row,” said Eric Ruud of Sparks, Nev. “I invited a bunch of my friends to join me and we had a blast. They were envious last year when the train passed them as they sat in traffic.”Seats are limited, so for more information on the Raceway Fun Train or to purchase your ticket package today, call 800-870-RACE (7223) or visit www.racesonoma.com/nascar.
