North Elk Grove[2] was a proposed train station that would be a stop on Altamont Corridor Express and Amtrak California's San Joaquin services. The station site is northeast of Elk Grove on a piece of land owned by the Sacramento Regional County Sanitation District. The Sacramento RT Light Rail Franklin station is located 2⁄3 mi (1.1 km) to the east also on Consumnes River Boulevard.[3]
The station was rejected from consideration in September of 2020, due to opposition from the Sacramento Regional Sanitation District and not having support from the community.[4]
