Davis, CaliforniaCoordinates: 38°32′37″N 121°44′12″W / 38.54361°N 121.73667°WCoordinates: 38°32′37″N 121°44′12″W / 38.54361°N 121.73667°W Area: 0.2 acres (0.08 ha) Built: 1914 Architectural style: Mission/Spanish Revival Governing body: Private NRHP Reference#: 76000541[2] Added to NRHP: November 7, 1976 The Davisville (now Davis) Railroad Depot was built by the California Pacific Railroad between August 24, 1868, and November 15, 1868, connecting Davis to Washington (now West Sacramento) to the east, Vallejo to the southwest, and Marysville to the northeast via a wye at Davis to Woodland, where the line separated to go northwest to Redding via Tehama and northeast to Marysville via a drawbridge at Knights Landing. In 1871 the Cal-P (as it later was called) was taken over by the Central Pacific Railroad; a fire later burned down the 19th century-style station. In 1914 the Central Pacific built a second depot, which was remodeled in 1986. The depot was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.[3]
Of the 73 California stations served by Amtrak, Davis was the ninth-busiest in FY2010, boarding or detraining an average of about 1100 passengers daily.[4]
