The Antioch Model Railroad Club's Building is fortunate to be located about 300' from the BNSF Stockton Sub Mainline at MP 1150.91. Our building location affords some great views of Mainline action. The line averages 13 Freight Trains a day and 8 Amtrak San Joaquins a day. The San Joaquins do make a station stop here in Antioch. Additionally, the Union Pacific Mococo Sub runs through Antioch approximately one mile south of our clubhouse, Currently the line is not in regular operation between Pittsburg and Tracy. Occasionally UP will store cars on the line but at this time the line is clear in Antioch.
