Sit back, relax and read a book while the Sacramento’s Library Train takes you to your destination. 

SacRT teamed up with the Sacramento Public Library to launch Sacramento’s first Rolling Library Train in August 2022. The brightly decorated train promotes riding and reading. This is also the first time the interior of a SacRT light rail train has been completely reimagined. 

When you step onboard the library train, you will feel like you have been transported into a library as the walls and seatbacks resemble books on shelves. Riders can find hidden gems on those bookshelves featuring QR codes to free downloadable materials from the Sacramento Public Library.  

Riders simply take out their phone, scan the QR code and that brings up the Sacramento Library App where they can download ebooks or audiobooks for free.  

A special thank you to Lamar Transit Advertising for providing the printing and installation of the interior artwork.  

Sacramento’s Rolling Library Train will place library services in the midst of riders daily routine making books and services more accessible. 

The library train will travel on both the Blue and Gold light rail lines.
